A single visit turned into regular sessions where Morrie Schwartz decided he had one more class to teach. As the disease progressed, Morrie became weaker but no less determined to share what he had learned throughout his life. This book had a profound effect on me. A short and simple book, Tuesdays with Morrie reminded me why I became a teacher and inspired me to continue to make a difference in the lives of children. Wise and wonderful. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. (  ) mrsdwilliams | Dec 17, 2009 | Rather than finding this one as life-changing as many people whom I've spoken to about this book find, I find it predictable, and frankly a little like reading a self-help soup soul type book. I don't want to take anything away from Professor Schwart's viewpoints on life, because I think the world can use a lot more of him. I find the writing of the book a little too direct and simple. Simplistic. A little too much like a thesis, but without the insight of research. I think anyone who has read enough good books would find this one lacking a bit. Off the top of my head, Siddhartha is a much more interesting example of a book that journeys along the same line. The Alchemist is perhaps another. This book is worth reading if you are missing something in life, and not all that if you are chasing after a book that exemplifies the art of writing. (  ) siafl | Dec 11, 2009 | A beautiful beautiful book. I can't say enough about it. Hard to get through at times only because it is so emotional. There are so many lessons to be learned from this book. I would say this is a book for everyone there is something in it for all of us. ( )1  trinibaby9 | Nov 24, 2009 | Großartiges kleines Buch!!: Dieses kleine Buch ist mir duch Zufall in die Hände gefallen und ich muss sagen, ich bin froh, dass ich es mitgenommen habe! Es ist für alle Menschen geschrieben, die etwas über das Leben lernen wollen. Gefühl, Tiefgang, Weisheiten und manchmal auch etwas Humor. Und das Beste: Es ist eine wahre Geschichte, nichts Zusammengestricktes und Ausgedachtes. Das geht ans Herz und an den Verstand. Wenn das nicht lesenswert ist? Absolut großartig! r1hard | Nov 22, 2009 |  sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Amazon.com (ISBN 0307275639, Mass Market Paperback)This true story about the love between a spiritual mentor and his pupil has soared to the bestseller list for many reasons. For starters: it reminds us of the affection and gratitude that many of us still feel for the significant mentors of our past. It also plays out a fantasy many of us have entertained: what would it be like to look those people up again, tell them how much they meant to us, maybe even resume the mentorship? Plus, we meet Morrie Schwartz--a one of a kind professor, whom the author describes as looking like a cross between a biblical prophet and Christmas elf. And finally we are privy to intimate moments of Morrie's final days as he lies dying from a terminal illness. Even on his deathbed, this twinkling-eyed mensch manages to teach us all about living robustly and fully. Kudos to author and acclaimed sports columnist Mitch Albom for telling this universally touching story with such grace and humility. --Gail Hudson(retirado da Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:24 -0400) A primeira ronda de testes foi já encerrada.
