About this title

From the Back Cover:

10 Conversations You Need to Have with Yourself "Rabbi Shmuley′s book focuses on the heart of Gandhi′s great call to ′be the change you wish to see in the world.′ Readers who seek to live a life more consistent with their higher calling and who wrestle with the daily challenge to be a more righteous person will find compelling wisdom in Shmuley′s words." — Mayor Cory Booker "In this age of multitasking, bombarding media, and pervasive communications, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach reminds us of the centrality of our own inner voices. Read this book, listen to your own voice, and repair yourself and the world." — Alan Dershowitz , New York Times bestselling author of The Trials of Zion and The Case for Israel, Felix Frankfurter Professor, Harvard Law School "Rabbi Shmuley Boteach has always spoken with the voice of conscience. In this important book, he gives the reader important practical advice on how to transcend the demands of practical life and achieve something deeper and more meaningful." — Noah Feldman , author of Scorpions, Bemis Professor, Harvard University "I loved Rabbi Shmuley′s 10 Conversations You Need to Have with Your Children and have used it to guide and inspire my own kids. 10 Conversations You Need to Have with Yourself reminds us to follow our inner GPS in a culture that rewards us for what we do and make, rather than who we are." — Laurie Cantillo , Program Director of WABC radio "With his trademark wisdom and wit, Rabbi Shmuley conveys a profound and relevant message in this thoroughly enjoyable read. In 10 Conversations You Need to Have with Yourself , Boteach puts his finger on the pulse of the culture and writes a prescription for what ails it." — Ron Dermer , senior advisor to the Prime Minister of Israel "This enlightening book, written by one of today′s most effective conversationalists, is a powerful guide to recalibrating our internal¿road maps." — Michael Harrison , Publisher, Talkers "I′m convinced that Rabbi Shmuley didn′t so much write this book as transcribe our own hearts′ pleas for a life of meaning, which is so often drowned out by the clanging of our culture′s superficiality." — Lisa Allred Bloom , legal consultant for CBS News "Boteach possesses one of the most fertile minds of our generation." — Dennis Prager , author of Happiness Is a Serious Problem
