Andrew: The wisdom found in this book is life altering. Only downside is the book is physically huge but each page contains only about a paragraph of small print letters. It could have been pocket sized.

Cameron A.: After seeing this recommend many times over the years, I finally decided to pick it up. I was surprised by the brevity on each page, as they are mere one or two sentence thoughts, but anything more would have diluted the core messages.
It is extremely easy to read and the layout offers ample note taking and reflection. A great find.

Julie Bishop: I read this book from the library and had to get it. It is a short quick read. It has no text on the left side and 3-5 lines of very meaningful quotes on the right side. I'm a slow reader and it took me 2 hours to finish.
Don't be fooled, it is worth every penny.

M. Chan: I came across this book at the local store and started reading the first few pages. An hour later I was quite engulfed into the pages and the words that really spoke out to me. I forced myself to set the book down and ended up buying it on Amazon the next day.
Taming the Tiger Within is a unique and humbling verse to what most popular magazines and books try to hint towards: the avoidance of bad and the monument of changing one's self. However, Taming the Tiger Within isn't focusing on these modern-day and sometimes self-destructive concepts that try to avoid our own faults. Thich Nhat Hanh has given readers the conduit to empower ourselves to be mindful rather than scared, embrace rather than avoid, and to understand what we fear most; the unknown.
This book isn't for someone wanting to 'fix' themselves or 'change' aspects of themselves. This book is meant to make you aware of certain forms of emotions and habits. Anger is a theme that all of us as humans can empathize with.
