The title of this book creates a deep sense of curiosity, enough so that I am going to purchase it. We can all use some blessings in our lives, blessings to receive and blessings to give.

"Review"
by Chico News & Review,
"In this age of divisiveness in politics and religion and, well, just about everything else, it's rare to come across something uplifting enough to catch your eye long enough for you to put down your remote and actually read something."
"Review"
by Tom Robbins,
"I've seen the future of American literature and its name is Rob Brezsny."
"Review"
by Utne Reader,
"Rob Brezsny is a Culture Hero."
"Review"
by Body + Soul,
"Rob Brezsny, the renegade wizard behind the syndicated 'Free Will Astrology' column, has dedicated himself to putting the 'pro' back into 'protest.' In his new book, Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia, he presents his own irreverent manifesto, mixing activism and optimism. It reads like the I Ching on Ecstasy and is as insightful and puzzling as a Zen koan."
"Review"
by SARK, bestselling author of Succulent Wild Woman and many other books,
"I am deeply inspired by the illuminated words of Rob Brezsny. He is a word wizard for the soul."
"Synopsis"
by Ingram,
Brezsny has updated this edition by expanding various sections, adding more than a dozen new pieces and a new chapter, and providing readers with a number of playtime activities and exercises that lets them participate through their own writing and drawing.
"Synopsis"
by Libri,
Brezsny declares evil is boring, the universe is friendly, and life is a sublime gift created for our amusement and illumination. This witty, inspiring how-to shows how any reader can become "a wildly disciplined, fiercely tender . . . lustfully compassionate Master of Rowdy Bliss."
