The Book of Ichigo Ichie: The Art of Making the Most of Every Moment, the Japanese Way by Héctor García

1.0

This rating is not meant to be a reflection of the ichigo ichie practice, because from what I gleaned it is a beautiful practice and I would like to learn more about it. Unfortunately, this book jumps from one thing to the next without going into depth and relies on western pop culture to help bridge the gaps. That alone would have earned it a three star rating however I was flabbergasted when it made the claim that children with developmental disabilities (including autism) just needed more physical affection and that could cure it! That is just not true and actively harmful! Also the author's really don't understand Einstein's relativity and clearly shouldn't be talking about it and passing it as fact. Those were the two pieces that I knew were 100% wrong and I wonder how many other tidbits were given the same treatment, stretched to fit the narrative.
