I was given this book by a close friend for xmas. I must say if you are busy and enjoy reading but can't afford the time to read long, drawn out books, then this is a perfect remedy. Lots of charming anecdotes, factoids and funny stories to relate to for everyday life.

I love finding books that you can just leave sitting around and pick up any time. Despite it's size it is almost like a coffee table book in that regard. Pick it up any time, open anywhere, and who knows what you might find, from stories about struggling with the modern world of smoke detectors (believe me I know), to some ancient pearl of wisdom from Confucius. A flaw might be that it doesn't have an index (the one reason I can't give it 10 out of 10), but on the other hand, searching for something you want to re-visit usually leads to new discoveries. I highly recommend.
