Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives

I first read this when I was about 10 years old, I listened to it on tape to be specific. It was really interesting to re-read it as an older, and slightly more disillusioned adult. I found I identified a lot more with the main character's feelings but some of the writing felt a little contrived or trite where as as a child it was sort of the opposite.
Either way it's a fantastic book definitely worth at least two reads in a life time and I suspect I may read this again in another 15 years or so.
