About the Publisher
‘The Best Book I Have Read on the Subject for Twenty-five Years’
I sent the manuscript for this book off at 12 noon on a Wednesday, and at 2 p.m. the following day I got a call from the first and only publishers I had sent it to. The first thing the editor from HarperCollins said was, ‘This is the best book I have read on this subject for twenty-five years’, followed by, ‘It’s like a cold glass of water on a hot summer’s day.’ I was flattered, to say the least, but I knew at the same time that the information was pretty groundbreaking. Luckily, the editor at HarperCollins wasn’t the only person to think the book was extremely different to everything else out there and I have received thousands of emails from all corners of globe, saying how the book has completely changed their lives.
