By	Vincent Catanzaro (Alpharetta, GA United States) - See all my reviews

About every five years or so, a business / improvement book will be written, that actually contains original thought.

There is nothing ordinary about Brain Brilliant.

This is a book that is an easy read that provokes a new understanding on how to be successful.

Those who are going to find Brain Brilliant an exciting read are those of us who read a lot of the expert's books.

What makes Brain Brilliant exciting is that it is fresh. Imagine how much fun it is to understand how to improve your brains production.

We as a society are always trying to improve our physical body, our leadership style, our sales techniques, and our communication style. We buy in Vogue clothes, luxury cars and live in suburban mansions.

Why are so many people an emotional mess? They have not yet read Brain Brilliant.

We are always finding new and creative ways to, waste or invest depending upon your view, our time and money.

This is clearly a great investment. Who doesn't want to improve your brainpower?

A breakthrough book that will surely find its way to the NY Times best sellers list.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that challenges you to think, January 6, 2003

By A Customer

At 140 pages and large print, you will get through the book quickly. But the author follows the premises of the book and keeps you thoroughly stimulated. That, I think was her intent.

The book provides knowledge, incites, and challenges. It is these challenges that will result in positive change. I particularly liked the section on dealing with difficult people and the section on stress.

Combining experiences we can all relate to with technical analysis on the working of the brain, I found the book to be quite credible and intend to put into practice recommendations in the book. That to me makes the book of value.

I would highly recommend this book as a backdrop for discussion at a corporate retreat. Its small size should guarantee that most will actually read it.

I will say the book was recommended by the father of AmyK and this was not a type of book I would normally choose. But having read it, I will thank Mr. Hutchens, the next time I see him. It was well worth my time.
