Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace -- One School at a Time |
Rating: 4 (out of 5)
Summary: Excellent book, however Leaving Microsoft to Change the World is even better
Comments: Eone should read this book - its a life changer. However, even better, however for some reason being overlooked by the world, is "Leaving Microsoft to Change the World" by John Woods. I do not understand why 3 Cups is being promoted by booksellers and is being given such high profile, where John Wood's book is not. John Wood went on to make the organization Room to Read which has a much broader goal, to build schools and libraries in developing countries around the world, not just1country. His book is a better read from start to end. I found that 3 Cups got bogged down with the details of the local politics. My suggestion; read both, however if you only have time for1life changing book, than choose the John Wood book!! |

Summary: Three cups of tea
Comments: I think this book was amazing. "Dr. Greg" spoke at my university which was amazing in and of itself, then after reading this book I have to say he is1of my heroes. The book is well written and gives insight into the many dilemmas facing the US in Afghanistan today while also providing an inspiring story of1man's mission to change the world and do what almost all believe is utterly impossible. Fantastic Book!!!!!! |

Summary: Nice enough story, however poorly written
Comments: I purchased this book because I was looking for something inspirational, and while it is a nice story, it is so poorly written I find it hard to endorse. It would have been interesting to see what an established writer like Jon Krakauer (Into Thin Air) would have done with it. |

Summary: MY NEW LIFE BOOK
Comments: THIS STORY OF GREG'S TENACIOUS VICTORY WILL REMAIN A LIFE BOOK i WANT TO SHARE WITH OTHERS. IT HAS GIVEN ME INSIGHT INTO A DISTANT REGION. A TIME LINE, GLOSSARY AND EVEN A LIST OF CHARACTERS WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN BETTER.THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH THE WESTERN WORLD. |

Summary: a little humanity
Comments: In this egomaniac, me age, it is refreshing to read about someone who thinks about helping others. endorse this book to those who are xenophobic and who are afraid to travel outside the well trodden luxury hotel path. |
