It may be a little unfair to be negative about One Small Step Can Change Your Life. After all, I don’t disagree with the book’s main point. For me, though, there are two hindrances. One is that I’ve recently read a completely fantastic book about mental health (Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score) and a completely fantastic book about small changes (Atomic Habits, by James Clear). Robert Maurer’s book is in those areas too, but without the excellent research presentation that makes those other books so remarkable.

The other difficulty I have with this book is that the main point is really (wait for it...) small. That’s fine—it’s a great main point, that a good way to move ahead in changes you want for your life is to start with laughably small goals that will keep you moving forward toward the bigger changes. It’s just . . . that’s it. It’s 221 (small) pages of that. This is a book that could have been a blog post. (In fact, here’s the blog post. Read this and you’ll know as much as you probably need to about kaizen.)

Maurer’s book is fine, but it didn’t add to what I already knew. If you’re new to kaizen or “mini-habits,” you’ll likely enjoy it. Personally, I preferred the earlier version, by the esteemed Dr. Leo Marvin.

«Les Juifs, le monde et l'argent»: un titre aussi brutal risquait d'éveiller de vieux fantasmes, de réveiller des stéréotypes qu'un antisémitisme renaissant exploiterait volontiers. Jacques Attali, né en Algérie dans une famille juive, est évidemment très conscient de ce danger qu'il évoque dans l'introduction à son essai. Si ce gros livre privilégie en effet l'aspect financier, il est avant tout un «voyage» à travers toute l'histoire du peuple juif des origines à la fin de 2001. Ce qui donne à certains chapitres, surtout vers la fin, un caractère un peu sommaire. Mais cet ouvrage brasse une telle masse d'histoires, d'informations et d'analyses que sa lecture est un bon «investissement», pour rester dans le domaine économique!
