This is a book filled with simple truth. The problem most of us have is that we get so busy in our daily lives that we forget these things. Success Tidbits will remind you of them in an entertaining way. Each "tidbit" is focused on improving our daily lives in a specific area.

Anthropology has long shied away from examining how human beings may lead happy and fulfilling lives.

This book presents the personal narratives of six Palestinians--four men and two women--whose stories are central to describing the greater Palestinian plight in the Gaza Strip, the Intifada, the beginning of the 1993 peace process, and beyond. Each Palestinian has related crucial events in his or her life story, and by reading their accounts, we come to see the struggle through their eyes and put a human face on events that Western media and consciousness have only partially explored.
