Rating:  Summary: Un Libro para la Mesita de Noche Review: Es uno de esos libros que por donde lo abras siempre encuentras algo interesante y bastante inspirador que leer.
Interesantes Historias tanto para empezar o terminar un dia cargado de buenas o malas energias. Como de costumbre Coelho nos pone a pensar.. Gracias!!!
Rating:  Summary: Aphorisms++ Review: Paulo Coelho gives an interesting presentation of a group of aphorisms best suited for young men going out to "conquer the world." He has placed his wisdoms into the context of a young man learning to hear the truth amidst a haze of sound. He presents in short form a code of chivalry for the modern youth. He draws on a mystical framework for presenting ideas from Christian, Moslem, Hindu, and Buddist philosophies. In sum he presents more Eastern than Western ideology. His definition of a "guerrero de la luz' comes most clearly on page 100 when he says that a guerrero de la luz is a person who makes mistakes, asks questions, and because he continues to seek meaning to his life, he will eventually find it. On page 149, he further presents that the end does not justify the means because there are no ends. We do not know from where we came or to where we will go, so only the means are important. I read this in the Spanish edition, which preserves the beauty of the language. The Spanish is easy to read and is suitable for a young reader.

Rating:  Summary: A Great Book To Read in Times of Turmoil Review: This is a great book to meditate on, especially in these times of economic turmoil. Many lessons found in Eastern Religion, and in general philosophy. Nicely aggregated. One of the best things I have read in years.
Rating:  Summary: The book I would like to share with all Review: This is an easy reading book that motivates you to ponder and think after each page of so much practical wisdom. A book that I would like to share with all my children. Has it been translated into English?I have read it all and keep going back to it any time, open any page and enjoy and savor the wisdom all over again.
Rating:  Summary: The book of light Review: When you feel like the world is becoming menacing and that you have lost contact with the inner you, then just try this manual. It will bring up to the surface the warrior of light we all hide inside. It teaches us that making mistakes is only human and reminds us of the treasures of nature that can fill our lives with beauty. This is an amazing book like most books of Coelho and I highly recommend it because it will change your perspective towards life and it might offer you that inner peace you really long for.
