Franklin Ezeokoli's language in this somewhat autobiographical self-development book is powerful, sublime and evocative. His apt use of maternity registers such as 'conception,' 'labour' and 'delivery' to birth his ideas is a gripping metaphor of his journey into the world of knowledge and creativity.
His advocacy for a delicate balance of the segments of the students' lives viz academic, social and religious, echoes Henri Nouwen's assertion that "the spiritual life does not remove us from the world but leads us deeper into it."
Furthermore, this book educates and provides guidance, in subtle and overt ways, to young minds who could otherwise have missed their steps by engaging in one form of unhealthy practice or another. This is simply splendid!
I recommend this masterpiece on "The Complete Student" not only to all University students, but also, to everyone who is interested in the all-round development of our future generation.
