From Booklist
"If I sent this book to myself for a comment . . . I'd write, `It's already been written. Nothing new.'" What Siegel means by that seemingly self-deprecating review is that all good spiritual advice is necessarily a rehash of what the great masters of the past have said. Well, yes . . . but this particular book is a retread in the more prosaic sense as well: there really is nothing new here. Siegel draws readily from his own previous works, Love, Medicine and Miracles (1986) and Peace, Love and Healing (1988), as well as the works of others with the same positive messages about living life and working through adversities. Same old same old, to be sure, but Siegel is a well-loved brand name, and his collection of anecdotes, stories, and supportive advice does have its amusing moments. Among the topics Siegel covers are how to find peace of mind; how to love, encourage, and forgive other people as well as yourself; and how to thrive in bad times and survive the good times. For those ready to be uplifted by the soothing repetition of time-tested homilies, Siegel delivers the goods. Ilene Cooper

An excellent book for one searching for a meaningful life.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Prescriptions for Living: Inspirational Lessons for a Joyful, Loving Life (Hardcover)
This book helps us to focus on what is important in life. If we are troubled by sickness, poor temperment or just the blahs of living from day to day struggling to find what our lives are all about, this book highlights methods of overcoming the spiritual doldrums of existence. Bernie gives of himself in this book by showing how he turns inward and focuses on the negatives of his temperment to irradicate those faults and become a more loving and giving person. His theory embodies thought from a variety of spritual sources although he primarily quotes themes from the Bible and Christian theology. I was encouraged by this book to quit living as though I had all the time in the world but rather to live with a thoughts of how temporary this life really is. Bernie encourages us to live our lives as if we knew and realized that we only have a short time to be here. I am inspired to quit living for the drugery of a job and persuit of material goods and to live a life that is centered on giving, creating, and sharing my God given talent with others.
