Getting Perspective on What's Really Important in Life

Ben Carson is a wonderful man. Everything about him is worthy of attention. This book is inspiring as well as informative about a man who is alive and well and living in the USA! You can feel his humble nature through the words written about him as well as the remarkable obstacles he has risen above in his life.

I absolutely love Dr. Carson's books. They are moving...full of knowledge...interesting....and have common sense....I recommend his books to everyone. Excellent reads... The Big Picture I read right away and couldn't put it down....

Some great ideas here from a gentle voice. Dr Ben Carson opens with a very moving narrative, recalling early infant craniopagus separations.

Dr. Carson lays out a strong critique of the "victim mentality", not only dismantling this corrosive worldview. But he offers a memorable acronym, that systematically points the way out of this way destructive thought process. He also clarifies the definition of true success in terms that are often viewed as countercultural, this is quite refreshing.

We are fortunate to have a leader such as Dr. Carson alive today. He speaks of truth, that is based not on media trend, but on a real, purposeful Christian faith, a reality that is not "veneer church religion", but one of a living faith based on bold actionable principles.

A book with lots of action and an unpredictable ending. The author draws the reader in from the first page and as the complicated web of deceipt grows this book like "a Special Relationship" kept me reading through the night.

I have read Think Big, America the Beautiful, Gifted Hands, One Nation and am about finished with The Big Picture. I enjoyed all of Ben Carson s books so far, each one thinking was the best when I finished it so now I am thinking the The Big Picture is the best. Each book tells you something more about his life and he is a great story teller. Who he is never changes, always constant.

Reading Ben Carson's book The Big Picture was extremely motivating. He addresses many of today's issues with humor and insight, honesty and candor. We are enjoying reading two of his four books purchased.

Stressed the idea of looking beyond our own situation. He is not afraid to acknowledge that he is a Christian. We need more people like Dr Carson who can inspire and encourage young people to get all the knowledge they can and with God's help, use it well. This is a VERY good book.

This book was so interesting in how Dr. Ben Carson (who came from a low economic group and at one time was at the bottom of his class), could rise to be such a great neurosurgeon.

He also shares his belief on our government and gives common sense approaches to making it better.

Really liked the book. I have heard Ben Carson speak, on TV, and he writes just like he speaks. I normally prefer slam, bang, stick-em-up type stories but this on kept me and my wife fasinated from the start. The man speaks with his heart, truth comes easily from his lips.....now.....if we will just listen and act......................
