Amazon.com Review
Tim Allen, star of the hit sitcom Home Improvement, takes on quantum philosophy, intergender relationships, and the male midlife crisis in a joke-filled (but ultimately serious) "weekend in the life" narrative. It's an odd combination, shifting from enthusiastic gushing over restored sports cars to earnest elaborations upon Deepak Chopra and Fritjof Capra, but Allen manages to pull it off. If you're expecting a standard unchallenging celebrity-penned "book," or a fluff-filled "memoir," you're going to be quite surprised.

SherryMarie (Canada) (2009/08/27):
I didn't know what to expect from this book, but the title hit a cord with me. I was not disappointed. He has a weekend alone, and has time to analyze where he's gone with his life, and why he's hit that "why are we all here" stage that we all feel at one point or another. With anecdotes on fame for our entertainment, and deeper analysis of some fairly deep readings we get a full range of pleasure from this book.
