Jim does a great job in Nothing. With a very approachable manner about his writing style, I was able to work through the piece in a weekend. The subject matter that Jim attacks is the very fiber of our existence. It is almost something our mind would rather not have us read but we must.

This book has had a profound effect on my life for the better. If you can appreciate the meditative life..particularly 'mindfulness', being still, Zen...you will appreciate the words in this book. I hope these words leave you with Nothing at all. :-)

Nothing is a peaceful look at one's mind and the positions, issues, and subconcious responses we all fall prey to every day. Reading it is like flowing along a cyclic path as the author takes you on a journey through the mind. The author has a unique perspective that is both intriguing and encouraging. For anyone looking to achieve greater insight into oneself, greater emotional maturity, Nothing is a wonderful book to help in building a substantial foundation for future growth.One doesn't have to "agree" with everything within Nothing to leave the experience of reading it with numerous jewels -- jewels that help provide that critical insight into oneself; jewels that become more and more apparent as one uses the lessons within to become more self-aware, more alive, more loving. In a way, Nothing is a significant part of everything. Thanks Mr. Sloman for your wonderful contribution.
