Publisher's Summary:
Is your fate predetermined, or can you change it?
Written by a scientist and inventor with a PhD from MIT, Puzzle of Fate systematically fits together the myriad factors that build and shape the fate of any given person and provides a method for mapping the way to the best possible future - the unique summit.
Drawing on a wide range of disciplines to present a pioneering approach to self-discovery and self-improvement, Puzzle of Fate introduces the concept of the "House of Fate," a configuration of six interconnected groups of factors that, taken together, encompass the whole of human experience. The unique, science-based conclusion of the book is that fate is the logical outcome of interactions between these six groups of factors.
Grouped into the factors that individuals have no control over, those that allow limited control, and the one with reasonable control, these aspects of life are explored in great detail. Listeners are then invited to make the most challenging and potentially valuable examination of their lives.
Through awareness of the six groups of factors as well as the concepts of happiness and quality of life, listeners are ultimately encouraged to manage their fates and reach their unique summit.
Members Reviews:
Dry and fact-heavy, but ultimately an interesting read- 3.5 stars
A lot of time, effort, and research was dedicated to this work and it was laid out in a neat, systematic way and it was clearly written by an extraordinarily intelligent individual. It was also very well edited which, if youâre reading this, Dr. Kamarei, I thank you for from the bottom of my little reviewer heart.
With that being saidâthis isnât a book for the average layperson. In fact, I think the books Dr. Kamarei listed as part of the landscape of this subject might be better suited for most readers. Their descriptions certainly made them sound more approachable. I very much struggled to settle into âPuzzle of Fateâ, in large part because I found the writing dry, long-winded, and extremely fact/information heavy. Dr, Kamarei took the same explain-in-minute-detail approach to every subject, from the difference between a house and an apartment to how human eggs are fertilized to the technicalities of the human genome. I found myself alternating between bored and bewildered. A few well-placed personal anecdotes would have softened the writing in the technical sections and livened up the more mundane topics.
I also felt like I could have skipped to the end of sections, read the summaries, and probably walked away with a passable understanding of what that particular section had covered. This setup reminded me far too much of my textbooks from college and seemed like both an unnecessary repetition and waste of page space.
I did, however, find the six-factors laid out in the House of Fate to be an interesting idea. It lent credence to the notion that we are not wholly driven and formed by things we can control or things we canât and that we are, in fact, a product of a mixture. The end of the book being devoted to practical application was also welcome and refreshing, though I must say, my favorite section by far was the one devoted to prenatal development. Iâve always been fascinated by this stage of human growth and the charts added a nice visual touch. Dr.
