Product Description
A New York Times bestseller with over 1.9 million copies in print, THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS poses 265 questions that invite people to explore the most fascinating of subjects: themselves. These questions are as intriguing as our very lives because they are about our lives-our fundamental values and beliefs, our dreams and nightmares about sex, money, love, power. Some of the questions thrust you into a value-testing hypothetical situation (Would you accept 20 years of extraordinary happiness and fulfillment if it meant you would die at the end of the period?), some ask you to delve into your past (When is the last time you stole anything?) and help you find out if you've changed (Would you now return it if you could?), and others reveal your basic nature by examining your behavior (When you are given a compliment do you usually acknowledge it or suggest that you really do not deserve it?). Whether used as an avenue for personal growth, a tool for deepening relationships, or simply as an entertainment, The Book of Questions may be the only publication that challenges-and even changes-the way readers view the world, without offering a single opinion of its own.

 Great way to kill time
I bought this book on a whim and we pulled it out one night at a dinner party we were having, there were about 10 of us there and it was so interesting listening to everyone's responses. The night lasted hours longer than I imagined it would. Some of the questions were a little disturbing, but we easily by-passed those ones. Worth the price!

Family and group fun and discussions
The Book of Questions
This is a great little book with a lot of "oomph". It has all kinds of hypothetical questions, some of which involve moral/ethical implications (if you could choose between 20 people you don't know in another country dying and a friend of yours dying, what would you do?), some of which are introspective (if you could trade 5 years of your life to be exceptionally good looking, would you?), and other "choice" questions that can spark serious and fun discussions. It can also be enjoyed (not as much, in my opinion) alone.
I highly recommend this - it's good for almost all age levels - I'd say kids under age 10 or 12 might not yet have the perspective for all the questions, but, of course, there would be no upper age limit.

 great book to start conversations, great for singles
Love this book. I have a lot of similar books and it's one of the best. Love that it's so small and you can take it anywhere. Questions are pretty tame, which is great for when you're first meeting people. Nothing too sexual or anything...although there is a "sex" version, which is great for when you get to know each other a little better. The series called "Question This Book" is great for that, by the way.
This one is definitely the one of the best, if you're into this stuff. Worth $7 to check it out.

 A waste of my money ( jswolf20002 )
I thought this book would be a great book to jump start my journaling and bought it without looking at it indepth. To be honest, many of the questions made me really depressed, asking questions about killing, dying, etc. There are some good questions in the book and it isn't entirely about the "dark" side of life. Some of the questions are repetitive only given a different situation. I would say out of the 200 questions, there were only about 20 I cared to journal about.
