Larry Weingarten's The Philosopher's Wrench brilliantly takes a philosophical approach to fixing things: from home water heaters to personal relationships. Weingarten speaks to the heart and soul of living wisely and lightly on the planet. He is an expert on hot water heaters, energy efficient homes, and living off the grid. But his writings on living well go much deeper than the mere proper maintenance of a home's technology. The process of fixing physical things is remarkably similar to the process of fixing emotional and spiritual issues. Enlisting the powers of openness, perspective, and a quiet mind can go far in helping you fix any sort of problem that crosses your path or that you may have been burdened with. This understanding and the confidence these powers bring is truly life-changing! Imagine a life with no real fears; imagine the calmness you would feel.

Industry Reviews

More than ever, the challenges we face in our lives and in the world can feel enormous, and people are seeking help to heal and to live fully. In this beautifully written book, you'll get so many priceless insights from a brilliant man who has spent his life being of service to others, finding practical solutions to challenges great and small. Larry takes us into the realm of 'putting things right', using not only physical tools, but even more powerful tools like creativity, perspective, and love. What I love best is that the life-changing wisdom here is given amidst stories from Larry's life, combined with his dry humor, so it's fun to read. Whether you feel anything in your life needs 'fixing' now or not, this book is a delightful gift that you can give yourself and to those you love!
