[Tyler · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book is so incredibly frustrating. Not that I believe Prichard to be wrong. I think he's right on a lot of what he says, but how he comes across is terrible. I have to read over, and over, what he writes because his style is a pain. He talks with seemingly simple, but the added interjections of a single sentence gets old. I believe there are some parts of humor (they made me laugh anyway), but overall, the book is hard to read. His moral philosophy was superb, and he has a lot to offer (very underrated, in my opinion), but his delivery is just poor.
