Disclaimer: This ARC was given to me for free in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley.
First of all, this book needs an editor because it read like a first draft to a novel.
I also didn't like how this book was narrated. It felt really amateur.
I really didn't like this book. I understand what it was trying to say, but it just felt like it was trying too hard. I don't know.

It started somewhat interesting, but then it seemed like a written infomercial.

I actually stumbled upon this book quite by accident. I was checking out some freebies and I found this. And boy I was glad I got this one.
The blurb interested me. The Bosurgi Syndrome? Codependency? I was interested. I wanted to read what this was above. It never fails to fascinate me how there is so much already written and tested about the brain and the mind yet it throws up newer and newer challenges and experiences. Research can be monumental, yet so much can change, this concept itself makes the mind such a beautiful subject. The constant state of flux!! I love it.
The book is told from the POV of Liam, a child born with the Bosurgi syndrome and his journey through life. He faces a true test when the Syndrome gets the better of him. But just in time, he finds Luca, the man behind formulating the Bosurgi syndrome. To be very frank I had never heard of this syndrome nor had I ever thought about any shortcomings this way. The book underlined the importance a loving childhood has on a person and his development.
I’ve often believed that Modern Medicine was somehow missing the point. Inspite of having advanced by leaps and bounds in medicine, our brain, the mind, our consciousness and sub consciousness were mysteries. We could never work out why things happened the way they did or explore the true potential of our minds.
This was something Luca considered at depth. The fact that the mind has problems of its own and that it was an independent entity, separate from the brain or logic. It makes very interesting reading and a fascinating point of view.
His methods seem very logical and his research precise. I got very excited when I read about how he went about healing his patients and I am very interested in seeing the healing happen.
The book covered not only Liam’s healing but also his transition into joining Luca and that is when Luca explained concepts in greater detail and sort of took in case studies for the reader to see and diagnose the Bosurgi Syndrome.
I do wish people especially doctors focused more on the mind and it’s powers. This book like Luca’s research is Experimental.

I really enjoyed the material covered in this book, but the presentation was awkward. It was very repetitive, and I found myself skimming entire pages of info that had already been covered. The plot was a little thin for me and it ends pretty abruptly. It read like poor attempt to make a textbook interesting with anecdotal notes.

Just loved this book as it is so me, it touches on the spiritual advancement, karma and our journey on wards and upwards from the beginning of life to the end. The different concept from an embryo to a baby and how it feels and sense, how it learns about love, life and living.
