| What the book is about: | |||||
| This book is a comprehensive guide to the dos and don’ts of trading.
As you would expect from the title it advocates taking the emotions out of trading (providing advice on the psychology required to be a successful trader). We begin with a cautionary tale of two traders (One who can control his emotions and one who can’t). The book is then broken down into three main sections.
Although we may all trade different strategies and timeframes I believe that anyone considering trading should read this book first. There are different guides and reference books out there for Forex, Options CFD’s etc but whichever vehicle you decide to trade there are useful nuggets of golden information in here. |

| Luckily this book is available as a free download but if it wasn’t I would pay for this book. I have included three links that are live at the time of this review being posted but I can’t guarantee how long they will be live for.
Larry Levin has his own online courses and even if the links below become redundant at some time I would hope that this book will be available via one of his courses. DISCLAIMER: the links below are readily available on the net but are nothing to do with me or my company so I accept no responsibility for an quality or access issues with these sites, now or in the future. |

| What I liked about this book: | |||||
| A great foundation for any trader that wants to treat trading as a business instead of a visit to the Casino | |||||
| What I thought could have been improved in this book: | |||||
| I would have liked this as a hard copy to take with me when I am having a break from technology. As a reference book it is great. | |||||

| Title: | Man’s Search for Meaning | ||||
| Author: | Victor E. Frankl is a world renowned author who survived the Nazi death camps of world war two and used his experiences to develop his own branch of psychotherapy “Logotherapy”. | ||||
| Category: | Psychology | ||||
| What the book is about: | |||||
| Considered to be one of the ten most influential books in America, this is a guide to how we can all survive despair by our own choice.Frankl uses his experiences in the death camp to present his theories, which are even more pertinent when we consider that in the death camps he was not employed as a psychologist but underwent the same arduous work and suffering as his fellow inmates.
This inside story of survival in a concentration camp provides an interesting focus on the ways that man can chose his mental attitudes and to survive. This book introduces Logotherapy and gives us an insight in how it relates to people under terrible conditions. This isn’t a book designed to condemn the holocaust but to show how anyone can overcome insurmountable odds He recommends a sense of humour on all occasions (Even in the death camps). The title mans search for meaning doesn’t refer to one meaning that is the be all and end all for everyone but that each individual must find their own life’s meaning. |

| Would I buy this book: |
YES |
||||
| In the (mass distributed) paperback format it is the kind of book you can keep with you and read over and over again. | |||||
| What I liked about this book: | |||||
| I liked the fact that even though he has written lots of books and this one was supposed to be written anonymously this book is his most famous.It was interesting the way in which he asked his patients why they didn’t commit suicide (As a way of finding what they had to live for) and then used their reasoning to reiterate that they had some meaning in their lives.
This wasn’t a flowery book on positive attitude but a reminder of how hard life really can be. |
|||||
| What I thought could have been improved in this book: | |||||
| This is not a light book. I realise that the subject matter of life in the death camps is never a light matter but some people may find the in depth psychology references a little heavy compared to a lot of the books out there on attitude. Having read it several times and listened to the audio book (almost five hours long) several times, I sometimes feel it a bit of a slog. | |||||
