"A Three Course Meal for the Mind" combines three books into a single volume: "On the Other Hand," "Just Around the Bend" and "Louder Than a Whisper" (also available separately). The books chronical Renee Paule's philosophical journey of self-reflection. She questions many facets of life that we take for granted, unlearning all that she has been taught: thus freeing her mind from the conditioning that society imprints. There is much to think about in these pages and it can make for uncomfortable reading as questions we tend to avoid are raised and discussed, particularly in "On The Other Hand." This collection is 'self-help' in the truest sense as there are no answers provided and it is left to the reader to cogitate and draw their own conclusions: conclusions that Renee maintains we already know but shy away from. One thing that stands out in all three books is that 'we' are responsible for what happens in our world: there is no-one else to blame. You may not like what you read herein but you will be hard-pressed to refute it. The second two books are illustrated with lovely drawings that demonstrate some of Humanity's much treasured and 'endearing' qualities. G R Hewitt (Editor)"
