Important book and vibrant writing! I got a little confused though, about the framework of the book. It was as if I didn't really know how to read and take what was written. I didn't know understand how the book was organized, and how to understand how chapters were coming one after another. Some of the concepts and aspects stayed a bit vague for me, it was a strange experience of reading most of the time. What I think now is that things might have been different if I had heard him talking instead of reading him. I can imagine that I would have been touched much more and better, if I came to hear Lama Rod Owens giving a keynote or a two hour talk, sharing about all his experiences and teachings that he shares in the book.

I was excited to read the book, and now that I'm finished I'm like: lol what did I just read.
It's very practical and woukd mainly be useful if you want an introduction on how to equip your home with heat source relying on fire.
A lot of obvious info for people that have at least made a fire once in their life.
I found the timber table useful.
Fine with a lot of good info about IF. A bit obsessive about weight loss, I didn't know the topic would take so much space in the book. Very self help enthusiastic and friendly tone of writing, can be a bit too much.
