Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Not working really sounds like a great joy Comment: I love this book. You can pick it up and read any chapter and feel energised. I found it cathartic and uplifting and would recommend it to anyone whether about to retire, or merely wanting to step down the stress ladder and get life's priorities right. There are many books about down-sizing ones life but this is well written, humourous, and great fun. Customer Rating: Summary: Amusing, wise, easy to dip into informative book. Comment: For anyone driven to work hard due to overconditioning in the work ethic this book is a must. The Chapter "Life Of O'Rielly" emphasises the stresses of modern life and how, with a different atttitude these can be avoided. For those about to retire this book is a must, however it is a good read for anyone in work who wants to alter their lifestyle. Zalinsky writes infomatively on many subjects, from using one's brain creatively to avoiding negative people. This book does not advocate idleness instead it gives pointers to enjoying life. The author discovered the joy of not working when he lost his job. After a period of despondancy, he discovered that a more liesurly pace of life has much to offer and a lot of money is not always necessary. Customer Rating: Summary: Average at best Comment: There are a lot of great books that deal with creativity. This is not one of them. Average, at best, it might fit the bill is someone was looking for a superfluous treatment of creativity. Customer Rating: Summary: Big on inspiration, little on practical advice. Comment: This book would be much more effective if it gave practical advice like 'Your Money Or Your Life'. There is little advice on how you get from one financial situation to the other and assumes perfect health (no reliance on health insurance)and diverse talents (able to get money only as needed). If you are in less perfect health, definitely give this book to a younger, healthier person. Customer Rating: Summary: One of Top 3 books on business I've ever read Comment: Even though the Joy of Not Working is technically not a business book, I'd lump it in that category nonetheless. I've read what seems like a gazillion books and I have to rate this little jewel as one of the three best business/lifestyle books I've ever read (the other two are Hawkins' Growing a Business and Lancaster's Secret Money Machine)--it's filled with wit and humor and tons of little tips. I've read it three times and Zelinski seems to add stuff between each reading. Enlighted guy!
