Short and to the point.
I found it really helpful making the connection between my analytical thinking and spiritual quest. The book talks about how the latest neuroscience findings are aligned with East philosophies such as Buddhism, Taoism etc.
And it does this by talking about left and right brain.
At times, the references to East philosophies fall short and too shallow however this is the trade off to have a short book. It is not fair to expect him to get into really deep in those topics. So it's probably better if you already have certain grasp in some of Eastern concepts.
In short, I really liked the book and it gave me the opportunity to make peace between my analytical and spiritual thinking.
Quick read and not too preachy
This book started very well and I enjoyed most of the chapters. As the book went on, it seemed like the writing quality deteriorated and so did the ideas. It felt that the author was trying to raise the stakes further to make it seem very metaphysical and far from the hard, physical world.
And then the book ends quite rapidly with a note of finding balance. The book felt a bit preachy in the middle but as the book is a quick read, it didn't bother me all that much.
I'd suggest you read the book if you're curious about the topic. I don't imagine you will find a grand takeaway but more of a reaffirmation of what you already know, and I suspect that the author also knows this.
