Thank you for your book review, sounds like a very interesting one. I've studied Buddhism a lot and always find it incredible at how accessible to anyone Buddhism is. The concept of desires is very well explored in the Buddhist philosophy and I am glad it reached you the way it did. We are human beings made of senses and desires more oten than not dictate our actions. Having control over them in the way you learned in the book is a great way to maintain a more balanced and healthier life.
