"I am more impressed than I was expecting (and since I know you, I had very high expectations). Not only do you transmit a very powerful message, but you did it with impact and made me so curious that I had to keep on reading. It was not heavy and you do not repeat concepts (which so many books do, and they get boring after a few chapters.)"
