作者：Michael Gates Gill

AMAZON读者评论：

Gill's happiness is like a ray of hope - or a friendly hand extended to anyone who is experiencing the hardships of a tough economy. How to Save Your Own Life: 15 Lessons on Finding Hope in Unexpected Places seems to say that maybe we don't need all that we thought we needed - the prestigious job, the fashionable clothes, the cool sportscar, and the trappings of social privilege; maybe what we need most is to have ourselves back, and to rekindle the sense of joy in ordinary experiences.

This new book takes all the lessons he learned through his life experiences and boils them down to 15 life lessons that he shares with the reader. Some chapters will resonate with some people more than others, based upon where the reader is in his/her life journey.
