A must read if you want insights into humans

I had been recommended this book by multiple people and it exceeded expectations. Yuval has spellbinding revelations continually. I was almost sad to finish the book

Definitely worth reading in these crazy times

Revisado: 09-10-17

Witty, funny, candid and therapeutic. I love how Al Franken properly rips jerks, lays bare his own flaws and shares his riveting story. The election and the inside look at working with people who you diametrically opposed to, is a lesson to all of is that the fight for fairness and American values is worth the fight. Even with the current clown In office and the buffoons in Congress who lack a spine to speak up, we need to keep fighting for the right cause.

An riveting story well told

Revisado: 12-26-15

An extraordinary effort captured whole encapsulating a time and a moment. Not quite as good as Unbroken, but up there.

Unbelievable--except it's true

Revisado: 11-26-15

Quite a piece of history that is not well known. A reminder that history does not always reward the real heroes. Told in a well balanced way

Excellent read--great insight into Israel

Revisado: 11-11-12

Very worthwhile, Really glad we read this before visiting Israel--provided a greater appreciation for the people, their accomplishments, their personality. stories were inspiring. My only complaint was that this ties things up in a nice bow and the story of this country and people is much more complex and prickly.

Maybe best novel I have ever read

Revisado: 11-11-12

I cannot believe I never knew of this masterpiece before. Brilliant and captivating on so many levels. The buildup of the story, the simple writing, the cleverness of tying so many things together and the universal timeless wisdom throughout. The story was riveting, I cried, I laughed aloud and simply could not stop listening. One of those books where I am sad when it ends. Not surprising to discover that 15 million people have read this, though apparently only a small portion are in English.

One of the best books I have ever ready

Revisado: 04-07-12

I could not stop listening to this powerful, heartbreaking story. The experience and suffering was so powerful. It would be hard to believe if it were fiction, the fact that it is true made me stretch my imagination and realm of what humans can inflict on others and how someone can tolerate and then thrive under continually brutal circumstances.

A remarkable story, incredibly well written and performed. Not to be missed.

A short must read for anyone who does business

Revisado: 03-24-12

A book with universal truths and a timeless wisdom that is necessary to understand if you are in business. A critical insight if you do business with ruthless people. Also it imparts the importance of preparation necessary for success in just about anything. I wish I had read it sooner.
