Summary: Understanding American Values
Comment: I am a student from Nigeria who heard Dr. Tripps give a guest lecture at my university. I was impressed with him, especially because he had spent years in Africa helping the people, and because he seemed to understand people from other cultures. So I wanted to know what he thought is the Heart of Success. After reading his book, I have learned that The Heart of Success is the same for people of all nationalities, cultural backgrounds, races, and economic conditions. In the conclusion of THE HEART OF SUCCESS, Dr. Tripps claims that not all celebrities are successful and not all successful people are celebrities. To be truly successful, we have to develop inner qualities. Dr. Tripps describes these qualities in the profiles. It was very encouraging for me to read these inspiring profiles, especially the ones of people who overcame difficulties of abuse, failure, family problems, and race/ethnic misunderstandings. I learned that even though I am new to this country, I can be successful in American because I can develop these same qualities to overcome my difficulties.

Summary: The Heart Of Success
Comment: The Heart of Success is an intriguing book for any of us who are fascinated with success and achievement. The book takes an honest look at how a select group of incredibly gifted individuals have triumphed in the arts, athletics, business, and politics. Forty short success stories about the likes of Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, NBA coach Red Auerbach, kidney dialysis inventor Belding Scribner, and the six-time Grammy-nominated opera star Frederica von Stade. While the individuals hail extremely different success stories, it is the underlying themes of will, discipline, intuitiveness, perserverence, and risk that ties these people together and makes thier stories cohesive. The Heart of Success is an easy read and one that answers questions for those of us who look at the great "achievers" in life and have always wondered how they did it.

Summary: Something for Everyone
Comment: I think what strikes me the most about Dr. Tripps' book is the fact that he allows it to appeal to everyone. In addition to being well-written and well-organized, the book invites each reader to take what they need from the interviews and to determine for themselves what the definition of success is. It is rare to find a book on this topic that is presented in such an unfiltered and unbiased manner. He has provided a unique collection of opinions and life stories that is fascinating to read. As a teacher, I appreciate the fact that this text provides my students with the opportunity to discover for themselves the qualities of leadership and the true characteristics of achievement.
