An entertaining read that made me chuckle and at the same time made me think. I loved the author's honesty and unapologetic view of his world, however politically incorrect it was. A good Chanukah or Christmas gift for your yoga teacher.
bought this book because I had seen the author at a Toastmaster's convention and he was a wonderful storyteller. The book has many of his newspaper columns and almost all of them are a hoot. A wonderful, funny read.
Easy, fun, interesting read ..Many relatable circumstances in ones life .. A sure laugh for all. John
As the old song goes, "Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious." Isenberg takes a witty and clear-eyed, but gently wry look at his own life's adventures and foibles, which largely happen to be the same ones we all have. And if we don't laugh at ourselves and our situation, where's the joy? The vignettes in this book point out the humor in everything that drives us crazy, from politics to interpersonal relationships to technology. There is even an analysis of the various types of hugs. So read this book and enjoy yourself.
SO funny and yet so real! Isenberg has crafted a classic, with a wide variety of different compelling stories. I LOL'ed my way from page 1 until the end.
To understand Isenberg’s writing style, mix equal parts Neil Simon with John Stewart, shake dry with an astute view of the world as it was, is, and may very well will be. From the nostalgic to the futuristic and everything in between, “Why Men are Suspicious of Yoga” is a witty yet often tender romp. A must read!
Loved this book!! It’s a funny but gentle commentary on real people and their struggles to make sense of an absurd world which is sometimes of their own making!! Full of interesting and resonating ironies that linger with the reader. Perfect escape reading! ! Looking forward to more!

Take it on the plane. Or
read it at the commercials of your favorite show. It is a compilation of funny short stories that are funny and relatable. There are too few things anymore that make us laugh.
Robert has amazing story telling skills. He can articulate what people are thinking with a very humorous spin. I found myself laughing out loud many times while ready these stories. A fun easy read. Enjoy and lets hope he writes a few more books.
Written with a sense of wonderment and a playful and unique outlook on everyday things. An ode to the ordinary.
Like a box of gourmet chocolates --- eat one and you want to finish the whole box. Read one chapter and you want to read them all.
