Absolutely loved this book. Refreshing information, served up in a lovely story - rather than having to muddle through boring self help literataure - what a treat. Google the author for fun....quite a bit of controversy around the book...regardless, truth or fiction, not to be missed. Thumbs up!

I think the world would be a better place if all Americans read this book and took its message to heart.

A good inspirational read. Something we can all use these days, right? True or not, hokey or not, it was fun to read; and causes some real thinking about what is "real".

This book is an account of the time an American medical doctor spent with a group of Aborigines in the Outback. Her journey involved a series of miraculous events that she claims transformed her life.
I found this to be a very facinating story, but I must warn you to read this with an open mind! My Australian friends look at this book as a 'ridiculous fabrication,' lacking any authenticity, a hoax! Having stated that, I still feel it is a worthwhile read. This story can help put your life in perspective, especially if you are dealing with any personal difficulties.

This book is controversial. It is presented as the actual experience of the author but may be entirely invented. Nevertheless, it's interesting reading and thought provoking.

This is a wonderful book. I found it at a book sale and was intrigued by the blurb.
I found that I could not put it down as I began to take the journey into the outback with the main character. This journey is as much of the land as it is of the soul.
When the last page came, I wished that it was all real and had happened.
Now, I always pick this up and keep it to give to a friend.
Don't be put off by the title, read it!

It is a story based on actual people though the names were not disclosed to protect them.
When I finished the book I wished that it were true.
A good and inspiring read.

Sort of narcissic account.

Even after 3 trips to Australia and a tiny bit of knowledge on the native people, I could not get into this book. After reading over half way through, I shelved it.

I guess I am at a different point in my life. While it tells a story of a woman coming into her own sense of self, it's just a bit silly hokey stuff. Call it what it is: fiction/fantasy.

This story touched my soul. In Mutant Message Down Under, follow the journey of a woman who discovers what it means to be a member of an Australian aborigine tribe... and what it means to be human.

I loved this gripping true story, and you will too! Once you pick it up, you simply can't put it down!

Even fiction should not be false information.

I loved this book so much that I will keep it and not put back up to swap. It says so much about how we look at life, family and so much more. It makes me want to know more about what goes on in all different countries. I would recommend it to be read in high schools and even middle schools.
