the Book is called ‘3 things’ and acting a little simplistic about that if you every day take the time to focus on the positive things you have experienced, one will be more grateful and experience a higher quality of life.
in a review In Berlingske tidende, it is, however, clear that the reading of the Kambers new book does not appear on the reviewer’s top 3 good experiences.
In his long review call notifier, Rune Selsing, Kambers book for a ‘list of ammestuesnak’, that is ‘clinically purged of critical sense’ and is ‘speculative’.
He writes that the reading has left him decidedly open-mouthed and adds:
‘You may wonder how the book’s surface content can stretch over 150 pages’.
He suggests, moreover, that the training in positive psychology – as Kamber tells that he has – is bogus.
‘After måbet a few times over in the curious pseudo-scientific statements, decided this reviewer to look for, what ‘trained in positive psychology’ actually meant. It seems to be an online and two weeks in the UNITED states on something called ‘Wholebeing Institute. Perhaps it is my innate stenaldersortsyn, which leads me to believe that the kind of bogus’.
To his american education in positive psychology was to be ‘bogus’, can Kamber, however, in no way recognize.
‘There is talk about Figures Ben-Shahars training in positive psychology, which is rightly world-famous, and was the most searched course ever, as he drove the at the Harvard. It is precisely this training, I have been in a development with Figures ben-Shahar in the lead. If an education is good enough to be one of the best at Harvard, it is in my best opinion, far out in the woods to call the bogus’, notify Kamber in a written reply to Ekstra Bladet.
the Book is awarded a single star.
Mainly because, according to the notifying party, however, is a little bit of bite in the chapter of the book, where Kamber declares himself totally disagree with Svend Brinkmanns writings that it is ok to focus on the negative things in one’s life.
In an email response to Ekstra Bladet informs Mikael Kamber, that he believes it will be to spend his time incorrectly, if you choose to go into a discussion about a reviewer who ‘sees it as the task of the pig people’.
– I’m honestly not spend more time on a reviewer who clearly sees it as its task to the pig people to complete without documentation, he writes, and continues:
– It is just like the gutter on Facebook. If one were to use the time to answer everything that’s being written out there, use his / her time, completely wrong.
He adds, that he chooses to focus on, the book has been so well received by bogkøberne, to the just now is at the top of the Arnold Buscks bestseller of non-fiction.
