Summary: unique data
Comment: Quantum Change is good read and a good one for me to read. Both humbling and inspiring at the same time. And I appreciated its (empirical) message, spoken via Western science: transformation lives! Insightful and mystical types of change in otherwise ordinary people. Some had transformations on nothing more than "please, God, if you exist, show me now." Obviously, quantum change may be totally at the effect of Grace and not a particular practice. On the other hand, the accounts were fascinating to read. Transformation by insight was easier to identify with than the mystical change. But they all exemplify what really matters: To a person all had less fear, if any, in the aftermath, often replaced by compassionate service.

Summary: SNORE....
Comment: I picked this book up because I feel that I'm in the midst of a major change, and hoped to learn something. What I got was... Nothing. I rarely criticize books. And I almost never don't finish them. I always try to find the best in things. I found the book full of stories and with essentially no insight. It seemed all mixed up - from people finding instant religion to the smaller paradigm shifts that almost everyone experiences throughout their lives. I felt that the authors started out with a good idea, but they couldn't really pull it off to make a book out of it. In the end, what they had was stories, mostly unremarkable stories.

Summary: You Gotta Search for the Meat
Comment: As a Change Consultant and guy with 30 years experience in the Fortune 50 this didnt do it for me. Too academic and too theoretical to make a difference for the people out there flailing around trying to make a difference everyday in todays organizations. There is some meat in here but you better be a starving dog to find it.
