|a"Weinstein shows that certain tweaks to a person's grammar can bring consequential changes in his or her fulfillment and well-being. In this wonderfully readable book, he describes some forty transformative moves that can be made with English punctuation and syntax. In the book, you'll learn, for instance, why a greater use of active voice constructions builds assertive energy in us. You'll discover how -- paradoxically -- cutting back on the "intensifiers" (exclamation marks and words like really, absolutely) heightens our awareness of the world. The farther one gets into this remarkable book, the clearer it becomes that Weinstein's wish -- for both himself and us -- is actualization of "the whole person," through language"--Amazon.com.
