Nordic Theory of Everything: In Search of a Better Life

Firstly 5 stars for quick delivery.Back in 2020, 3 months delivery time was estimated.Got my hands on it in Feb and a day's delivery was wonderful.About the book, eye opener for a simple yet progressive approach to education, lifestyle, eating habits and health.Gives us an idea of what we can tweak in our life to work towards a stressfree life.Does emphasize on State's contribution a lot.But people bring the change.Although too much comparison with US isn't fair. US still is miles better than rest of the world if not versus the Nordic countries.Must read .

Nice read, insights to live peacefully in the twenty first century. Written beautifully with comparisons and examples. A good work.

Lo único que no me gustó, una letra súper pequeña.

Todo bien.

If you are Finnish or American you would give this book 5 star because the issues covered here are about you and your country.As a Brit, it was certainly interesting to hear aspects of the Finnish system, but we already know how terrible things like the US university or healthcare system are. So parts of the book that explain in detail the anxieties of living in the US felt like dead wood to me and I wanted to skip parts.Enjoyable and enlightening, but I probably would have prioritised other books.

I can't recommend this book highly enough! It is enlightening, inspirational - politicans take note: change IS possible - the Finns overhauled their education system in ten years, where the "extra tuition" industry doesn't even exist and equal opportunities to succeed are offered to each child, irrespective of wealth/status! The Finns enjoy a healthy work-life balance and an affordable healthcare system - what a fantastic model to follow in today's wealth-driven, materialistic society.

This book is a fine expose on the so called land of the free which in reality has nothing to offer a European and in terms of healthcare and a few more things is a banana Republic. Brits beware, if you don't wake up this is the fate that awaits you.
