"To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men - that is genius. Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members. Whosoever would be a man must be a nonconformist." Ralph Waldo Emerson explores the themes of individuality and self-fulfillment in his most popular essay, "Self-Reliance." In it, he celebrates America's free society, one which places value on the individual, and attacks the institution of religion as one that stifles the soul. Emerson's essays, considered among the best in the English language, have exerted much influence and enjoyed tremendous longevity.

What made the experience of listening to Self-Reliance the most enjoyable?
Self-Reliance is an age old staple book for anyone making their own way in the world. This book is great for anyone starting out in the corporate world or venturing into their own entrepreneurial experience. There is no better.
If you’ve listened to books by Ralph Waldo Emerson before, how does this one compare?
This is one of Emerson's best works in my opinion because it is universally applicable and the information is immediately actionable.
Have you listened to any of Peter Johnson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Johnson is terrific in this piece. I have not listened to his work before. He is well suited to this content.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"You can do it"
Any additional comments?
Get this book to anyone that you know that is in the process of making their own way in life. I think that this book should be required reading before anyone can graduate high school in the United States and again as required reading in all degree programs.
