Lidé již po tisíciletí zkoumají svět – aby našli potravu, poklady nebo prostě jen kvůli dobrodružství. Cestovatelé a průzkumníci v minulosti podnikali dlouhé a nebezpečné výpravy za obchodem a poznáním, uskutečňovali první zámořské plavby, vydávali se na cesty do divoké přírody, snažili se svět zmapovat, soupeřili o to, kdo bude první stát na ledových pólech, kdo pokoří nejvyšší horu světa. V době nedávné se snažili jako první vzlétnout do vesmíru, poprvé stanout na Měsíci... Nahlédněte spolu s nimi do neznáma, odhalte, co je pod více než 70 okénky v této knize a vydejte se na cestu za poznáním a objevy!
Podtitul: Šalomounova tajemství úspěchu, bohatství a štěstí
Autor se s námi ve své práci snaží podělit o moudrost krále Šalamouna, která nám může pomoci dosáhnout tolik očekávaného finančního úspěchu a osobního naplnění.
Americký producent a podnikatel přečetl biblickou Knihu přísloví, jež je připisována králi Šalamounovi, a převedl její poselství do příručky, která má sloužit současnému člověku. Podle Scottova tvrzení můžeme v Knize přísloví nalézt rady pro řešení našich každodenních životní problémů: např. jak řešit konflikty, jak změnit nejhoršího nepřítele v nejlepšího přítele, jak překonat destruktivní síly v partnerském vztahu atd. Sám Scott se těmito radami řídil v oblastech svého osobního a pracovního života. Mezi významné osobnosti, které se řídily Šalamounovým učením, patří mj. Bill Gates nebo Steven Spielberg.
