 Zero inspiration November 26, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
While I feel sorry for Mr. Pausch, this book is full of tired cliches and offers nothing new that is life-changing. Rather, this work seems to be a self-absorbed, self-promoting autobiography and eulogy at the same time. This book was a huge disappointment and the only reason I finished it was because I was desperately searching for diamond in the rough. I never found it. For all his stoic attempts to impart some "wisdom" to the reader, it left me with what I started out with, nothing. This is not an inspirational book. It is a personal journal of a father trying to leave positive memories for his three young kids when they come of age, nothing more.
 A legacy for all of us November 26, 2008
An absolutely beautiful story of optimism, perseverance, and a heart- wrenching legacy to Randy's children. Best book I've read in a long time!
Super inspiring story -- The Last Lecture-- November 25, 2008
You will want all people to hear this story of life and trying to achieve your dreams. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent November 25, 2008
The book is an excellent and heartfelt bunch of stories about the author's dreams and hopes for his family after his death.
Inspirational November 24, 2008
This book will inspire anyone to make the most of life. His legacy to his children is an inspiration. Cancer knows no boundaries: rich, poor, old, young, it doesn't matter. Having lost my husband to cancer, I understand the shock of being told there is nothing that can be done. Truly a great book.
