Recensioner i media

“The book left me with a greater appreciation for worldview analysis as a diagnostic tool to better understand why I think and act as I do and why others come to different conclusions. … I will also be more careful in how I use the word publicly – or go back to Valk’s book as a reference.” (John Valk, christiancourier.ca, November 17, 2023)
