"The Real Secret of the Universe", by Mark Galli, Christianity Today,
posted May 3, 2007. "As with many books in the spirituality/self-help
genre, it's not hard to spot theological flaws. They jump up and down, crying
to be spanked. But the book's flaws interest me less than our reactions to it.
What I see—in myself, at least— is disdain and fear."
-
"Oprah's
Ugly Secret", by Peter Birkenhead, Salon, March 5, 2007. By continuing to
hawk The Secret, a mishmash of offensive self-help cliches, Oprah
Winfrey is squandering her goodwill and influence, and preaching to the world
that mammon is queen.

individually, are the very center of the universe.

the publishing phenomenon of the year so far, a small book with a

Secret: What Happened When I Followed the Best-Selling Book's Advice for Two
Months", by Emily Yoffe, May 7, 2007, Slate
