    Restoring Balance in Our Lives
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2015*

An insightful, in depth examination of society's over emphasis on success-oriented, economic-enhancing skills, vs. traits essential to character building. Brooks' premise is that the first, described as resume virtues, reflecting the Adam I nature of man, are now predominant in our society, out of balance with the eulogy virtues reflecting our Adam II nature, the service and other-oriented, moral characteristics for which we will be remembered.  The two primary source books for his discussion are, first, Rabbi Soloveitchik's "The Lonely Man of Faith," the origin of his Adam I and Adam II analysis of the dual nature of man, as Soloveitchik  interprets mankind's creation in Genesis I and Genesis 2 ; second, Viktor Frankl's "The Search for Meaning."The stress on high worldly achievement and economic success, he argues, is not enough. To bring true balance to life is to place greater stress on character building, recognizing that  yes,we are  wonderfully endowed  but also greatly flawed. His formula for character building is to focus on nine individuals who strengthened their "eulogy virtues" through self-examination and self-discipline.The book affords thoughtful, lucid writing based on extensive research.

    Must Read Companion
  

*by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2018*

An absolute must if you want to read David Brooks' book.  The book "The Road to Character" was described as a mid life crisis from someone (Brooks) who fancies himself as an intellectual.  The Summary does a much better job of explaining the original.  You can read it in a hour or less.

    Badly written and Oversimplified
  

*by G***1 on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2017*

This book has no redeeming qualities.  I am embarrassed at having purchased it.  Filled with incomprehensible sentences (constructed so poorly that one has to struggle to figure out what the "writer" is trying to say), total mishandling of  punctuation,  over simplification of ideas, ad unnecessary repetition, this book is a complete disaster.  If you can't find the time to read all of David Brooks' wonderful if lengthy book, at least content yourself with reading in it.  It's ok to jump around.  But I strongly do not recommend these hack productions by a company that apparently hires some of the most incompetent people imaginable to write their summaries.
