Coffee Shop University: A Book About Mythology, Spirituality, Philosophy,

Psychology, Religion, Politics, Economics and the Ecology

Synopsis

The place Bailey’s Gym, Los Angeles, California-6am-the fall of 1999…From a bourgeois neighborhood in Beirut to the schools of the streets of Europe and the United States, the story takes you on a journey of self-exploration and transformation that goes through weight rooms, boxing rings, libraries and the stock market. Relentless, unconventional and independent; these successive experiences yield immense benefits for personal development. Your life is not set in stone, it’s a gift for which the first page is carved in your DNA and the rest is yours to pen. When history fades pale next to our daily trials and tribulations, survival comes from a boundless, insatiable thirst for learning, social justice, as well an iron will for breaking up with tradition, and walking the unbeaten trails drawing our prints in the dust and mud we all come from.
