Extraordinary human being December 2, 2008
This is an exceptional book about an extraordinary, selfless man. I thought I was well versed in the current events of the geographic areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan depicted in the book. But the book taught me so much more than any news reports have. I hope it is made into a movie so millions more people will be entertained and educated. This is a great book for high school and college students to be exposed to how one person can indeed change the world.
wow. December 2, 2008
As an American, a woman, a mom and a teacher, I cannot say enough about the message in this book. May we as a nation learn a few lessons and be bearers of peace throughout the world. Please read and share with friends.

I bought this for almost everyone on my Christmas list this year. It affected me greatly, and I think it should be required reading in High Schools!

Three Cups of Tea is a must read for individuals interested in issues surrounding the modern world's quest for peace while accepting ethnic and religious differences. In the end, hopefully, peace will come upon us, embracing the entire world for in this book the reader will find there is more common amongst us than different. It is my hope that terrorism will tire and eventually fade for the sheer fact that it does not serve humanity, or any nation, any good in the long run.
Three Cups of Tea also serves to remind us that G-d's love takes form in many ways and the final result begins with the first; the love of family, self and respect towards others.
This book should not be missed. It also shines towards making education a natural resource for everyone instead of the privileged or elite. Education is pivotal for inviting people to contribute to their communities in a meaningful and inspiring manner. It is the diving board for evolution which many 'villages' here in the USA take for granted. We may learn from Three Cups of Tea many important lessons towards spiritual fulfillment by Greg's simple act of living in the moment!

The story is very good. It was a little hard to get into because it is not something that is of particular interest to me. I think it is wonderful that he wanted to help those children but I personally believe that we should help the children of the U.S. first. I am sure that there are places in the U.S. that would benefit from help like this.
