The Eve Code is a nonfiction personal development book. It is mainly addressed to women, although men could also appreciate it because it allows them to peek into the world of the so-called weaker sex.
As the book also states, men and women are different. Throughout the existence of humanity, these differences have caused women to be placed most of the time on a lower level than men, bringing them from frustration to severe injustice.

The author's tone is friendly, so reading the book gives you the feeling of a conversation with someone close to you over a cup of coffee. This intention probably stood behind the editing process, leading more toward free speech. I identified some errors, but they are not disturbing and contribute to the above-mentioned conversation-like feeling.

This book is remarkable from several points of view. First, it is well anchored in the present. It delivers many relevant examples from today's society. The author analyzes those examples in a new and engaging manner, bringing to the readers' attention unknown or overlooked aspects of several disturbing realities in our society. The connections between some highly mediated affairs and the elements of everyday life are surprising and shed new light on the events we all may go through, regardless of our position in society.

Second, the book includes physiological and medical data, giving readers all the necessary information to understand their feelings or health conditions and determine whether they need specialized support in different situations.

Ultimately, the author, who is passionate about the philosophical concepts of ancient China, comes with numerous quotes and interpretations of Lao Tzu texts in the context of 21st-century society. Although interesting, these references to Lao Tzu and his texts are my main reason for rating The Eve Code only four stars out of five. Chinese philosophy is very complex, and the text is far from enough for its reader to understand those 3000-year-old ancient principles. Undoubtedly, this was not the book's primary purpose.

Therefore, readers can fully enjoy the author's ideas and recommendations for overcoming traumas and fears, fighting debilitating illnesses or prejudices, and empowering women in today's society, which is still not wholly favorable to them.

Even though the book addresses women, men could equally use the guidance supplied to improve their lives since the masculine side likewise struggles with fear, stress-related disorders, or has forgiving and setting priorities issues.

Thus, the presence of such authors is favorable to introducing changes in the collective mentality of both genders so that the world evolves toward a place where both women and men can reach the maximum development the human species is capable of under favorable circumstances.
