This book offers profound insights into Dr Carson's motivations, commitments, and profound moral character.

He details the cases of numerous patients with challenging conditions.

Written in a thoughtful and introspective autobiographical style, an early and significant chapter penned by his mother provides a crucial backdrop for Ben's life and success.

He presents clearly and in detail many perilous cases where he faced decisions and made recommendations to save patients' lives, despite uncertain outcomes. He shares several cases where patients seemingly made miraculous recoveries or low-odds surgeries were successfully accomplished.

The cover indicates that the book was written with Cecil Murphey. One would assume that meant Murphey was his editor and/or co-writer. However, the book required a thorough edit. The issue with the sentences was not incorrect grammar or syntax.

Rather, many sentences and paragraphs were convoluted and confusing. I often had to reread to ensure how one sentence was intended to follow the previous. Conjunctions and adverbs sometimes seemed misaligned, disrupting the flow and oddly introducing a contrast. At times, the story seemed to trip over itself.

Overall, while the content is valuable, the presentation could have been enhanced with better editing.

How does this remarkable transformation occur?

The simple yet profound advice of always giving one's best has been a key factor in Bennie's rise from illiteracy to prominence. Self-awareness, determination, and consistency in self-improvement all play crucial roles. God has endowed us with certain abilities, and when we turn to Him, we are capable of great exploits.

So far, Benjamin Carson has indeed led us on a captivating journey of self-discovery through his book. It serves as an inspiration for all those who aspire to break free from their limitations and achieve greatness.

I really enjoyed this book by Carson for the most part.

It was mainly an autobiography, and the early chapters seemed somewhat like a long "acknowledgements" section. He took the time to go through every mentor who had influenced him. However, this was still inspiring for me and other teachers in the medical profession. It made me think about how I can have an impact on young students to achieve as Ben Carson did.

The wisdom and practical applications regarding hard work, reading, in-depth study, and so on are truly valuable.

My only gripe with the book was the incorrect theology it presented. Carson openly admits to believing in the "God helps those who help themselves" motto. He uses God as a kind of good luck charm, as a last resort to rely on when his own abilities fail. He views God as "a nice guy" who wants us all to unlock our full human potential. This is a very sad and incorrect view of God. God is not our personal cheerleader or genie. He is not just a small part of our story. We have been given life and breath to be a small part of HIS story. It is HIS story from start to finish, centered on Christ, on the gospel, on salvation and redemption. The book fails miserably to offer any eternal hope, essentially concluding with: "Work hard, and you can achieve anything"..."oh and ask God when you get stuck." It's very disappointing. He buys into the false health, wealth, and prosperity "American Gospel" like a majority of nominal Christians.

In 'Think Big,' Ben Carson, a highly renowned neurosurgeon, vividly shares his truly compelling life journey.

He imparts a wealth of valuable insights on the great significance of having a clear vision and unwavering perseverance.

By means of his personal stories, Carson powerfully motivates readers to bravely surmount all kinds of challenges that come their way.

He encourages them to set extremely ambitious goals for themselves and not be afraid to transcend their own limitations.

This book truly stands as an inspiring motivational roadmap, clearly underscoring the crucial and indispensable role that determination and faith play in attaining extraordinary success.

It serves as a source of inspiration and guidance for anyone who desires to achieve great things in life and shows them that with the right mindset and a strong will, anything is possible.

It was truly inspiring to read about Dr. Ben Carson's remarkable experiences.

He started off as an inner-city kid with humble beginnings, but through hard work and determination, he eventually rose to become the director of pediatric neurosurgery at the prestigious Johns Hopkins.

The overarching theme of his book is "Give your best at everything you do." This principle was thoroughly imbibed in him by his mother during his childhood.

He further emphasizes the significance of leading a life driven by values and principles, as demonstrated by the acronym "THINK BIG."

I was deeply touched by Ben's humility and spirituality, which shines through on almost every page of the book.

It is a very worthy read for anyone seeking inspiration and looking to make a positive change in their lives.

Whether you are facing challenges or simply looking for motivation to achieve your goals, Dr. Ben Carson's story is sure to leave a lasting impression.

This article is truly motivational and interesting. There is nothing that I didn't like about it.

Although I'm not religious, and Christianity played a significant role in this book, it didn't really matter to me. However, I wasn't crazy about it either.

I'm not sure what could be better, but I'll give it a 4/5 rating.

Perhaps it could have delved even deeper into certain aspects or provided more practical examples.

Nonetheless, it still managed to engage me and offer some valuable insights.

Overall, it's a good read that I would recommend to others who are looking for motivation and inspiration.

Whether you're religious or not, there's something in this book that can resonate with you.

It's a testament to the power of good writing and the ability to touch people's hearts and minds.

So, if you're in the mood for a thought-provoking and uplifting book, give this one a try.

You might just be surprised by how much it can impact you.

Honestly, I never would have picked up this book if it weren't for the fact that a lecturer prescribed it for one of my classes.

I'm not one for self-help or motivational books. I find them tedious and really not all that motivational. I prefer fiction, and as I said, I really don't think I would have picked it up, let alone have enjoyed it the way I did.

I'd heard about Ben Carson (those who haven't have probably been living under a rock), but I never really took interest in his books or the movie adaptation of his memoir. I really should have. I was really pleasantly surprised when I found myself actually getting drawn in. I think one of the reasons that I liked it was because it didn't read like your typical self-help book. It read like a series of short stories all flowing and pointing to one simple fact - to Think Big.

I found myself identifying with him and relating to his stories. He had a way of telling his story in a very relatable and interesting way, while still filling you with knowledge at the same time. I'm not a medical student, but I always find the human body to be fascinating, so I really liked how he stayed true to his medical roots and gave us a little snippet of how our brains function.

Not only did I come out of this really motivated and actually inspired, I came out of this knowledgeable. It really opened up my mind in the sense that I shouldn't just write off a book just because of the genre or type. I'm very curious and I want to read more about Ben Carson. I would seriously recommend everyone read this, regardless of your age or where you're from, or whatever. It's an amazing book that will make you reevaluate a lot of things, especially in the way you think. And most importantly, it will help you THINK BIG and hopefully achieve success, even in the little things in life.
