renormalised, I give you an A+ for effort and B+ for composition.

(A+ + B+)/2 = A-

Ah.....the least read best-seller. I have a paperback copy but never understand past halfway. The bigger hardcover version with lots of colourful pictures didn't help either. I need someone to summarise it for me

[PCH (Paul)]

Yep,

I too read that this book is among the most purchased yet least read books.

Can you imagine that - who would buy a book and then not go to the trouble of reading it

Anyone want to buy my (unread)copy ?

Read it twice, will need to read it a few more times to understand some of the stuff. The key to understanding most of what I could was to visualise it in my mind, so I would find myself reading a few pages before staring into space for minutes on end! I'm sure it looked strange on the train each day

I can relate to that.
I took the book with me on holidays with my sister. After I'd digested each new insight, I'd bore her to death, lecturing her about how it can relate to everyday life. Poor woman.
