Product Description
What do Americans need that most eludes them? It's not a tank of cheap gas (as astonishing as that would be) or ever earlier pre-holiday sales. What Americans need most - and most of them know it - is satisfaction, especially the satisfaction of enough. So when Simple Living America put out its call for submissions to this book, the mainstream response was enthusiastic. From the outpouring of personal stories submitted, the editorial committee chose these twenty to represent the broadest possible spectrum of Americans who have sought and found a simpler, more satisfying life.

Collection of stories, good read... ( liegelr )
I felt like this was a generally useful and enjoyable read. It's more a collection of stories than a set of steps that you would need to go to if you wanted to simplify your life. Although I read it almost all in one sitting, the chapters/stories felt a little bit disjointed. It's still a good book though and is nice to hear actual stories of other people's issues and how they solved them.

Many Definitions of Simplicity
What I really appreciate about this book is that it allows people to see the many different definitions of simplicity. There is no one correct way to live "simply." If you are on a journey of being satisfied with fewer things or with a less busy schedule and would like to hear the stories of others, check this book out.
