Summary: Amazing book!
Comment: This book changed so many of my views on the middle east.
Greg Morrenson should win the Nobel Peace Prize for his work.

Summary: An Inspiring Read
Comment: I just finished this beautiful book. I found this book to be inspiring and touching. Sometimes there is a feeling that just one person can't make a difference, that all the world's problems are just too great but Greg Mortensen challenges that idea. With just a small idea that grew into a huge project that has helped so many, Greg has inspired so many. I love also that he doesn't just show all the positive aspects of his projects but shares realistic accounts of his failures and achievements. He is not someone whom he thought could be doing this but the path just kept unfolding in front of him. Also, the photographs in the book really bring humanity to the story. I found myself choked up while reading this book sometimes. I wonder if sometime we may hear this man's name again when it comes time to award the Nobel Peace Prize. I hope so because I know he will use the prize money well.

Summary: Greg Mortenson's life work should humble us all.
Comment: If you spend your time like most of us do: going to work, buying stuff, going to lunch, buying more stuff, talking on the phone and not getting much of anything done of any real value, this book should be a giant wake up call. If you thought that one person couldn't do anything to change the mess the world is in today, this book will be a mind-blowing inspiration. We can, each one of us, in our own way change the world....if we just DO something to create a positive change
Greg Mortenson should win the Nobel Peace Prize

Summary: What I Learned From "Three Cups of Tea"
Comment: What I learned from "Three Cups of Tea" was very simple: if you want to help win the war on al Qaeda, contribute as much as you can to the Central Asia Institute (https://www.ikat.org/). The key to any counter-insurgency is to gain the support of the people (see http://alglobus.net/politics/FieldManual.html) and nobody is doing more of that with less than Greg Mortenson's organization.

Summary: Alas... Boring
Comment: I am one of those lone voices that quietly has to say this book did nothing for me. My friend up the street said I wouldn't be able to put it down, but I did.
The first three pages were excellent and I had great hope of a great read, but alas Mortenson grows long winded and wearisome. His details are not interesting, though they could have been given the fascinating place he was in, but instead he is boring and pedantic.
