The Day After is a true story drawn from the power of human psychology and mental strength. It is a story that moves the reader to tears; a story regarding coincidence and our inability as human beings to assess the likelihood of an event occurring that deviates drastically from the normal frameworks that we are familiar with. Noa is a beautiful, successful, and respected attorney, a Doctor of Law, a legal author, and the former CEO of a start-up company that developed algorithms for identifying the behavior of casino players. She has conquered great heights and fulfilled her deepest dreams. She is well known in Israel, where her successes have been widely covered by the Israeli press, as well as on television and radio. Shai is a handsome and impressive man, happily married and the father of three children. He is an attorney who lectures on legal issues, specializing in cyber law and technology. He is accredited as an expert witness able to give professional options in his areas of expertise - international and Israeli cyber law. He has many outstanding achievements and qualities and attained senior positions despite the many difficulties he experienced as a child. Even though he only completed ten years of formal school education, had severe learning disabilities, and, as a child, frequently heard the sentence 'nothing will come of you' (a message that is engraved into his heart and soul to the present day, he completed, in a relatively short space of time, four degrees in computer science, law, and business administration. One secret is woven into both their hearts, binding them together. This secret revolves around our inability as a society to consider the possibility of an extreme, out of the ordinary event occurring. A formative event that will change the very fabric of our being and our understanding of ourselves. This shared secret led to a mental and physical crisis, which forced them to confront questions regarding the fundamental nature of life and to begin an extraordinary journey of self-realization into the depths of psychology and mental strength. A journey intertwined with friendship and true love. What are the chances of them ever meeting?… (meer)

The author is clearly convicted and sincere, and perhaps wounded. As a reader with little experience and no interest in whatever gender bending may be involved, I am was unable to find much of value in this work -- in spite of the effort and suffering involved. This book further documents the reality of a complex world, and whatever readers may "believe", we should agree that bullying and jeering at any one who is a victim and trying not to be, is not justified.

WAY TOO MUCH product name detail! Wow! It seemed like every item was described by a name brand. I did not finish reading this book.

The book starts out with alternate chapters about a young man named Shai who overcomes many difficulties to be successful professionally, and a seemingly perfect older female lawyer named Noa. Eventually we learn (SPOILER! But this is mentioned in other reviews) that they are the same person. I had no idea this was coming. The book goes on to give more background into this change, but I was left feeling the story was incomplete and that I didn’t truly know or understand Noa. I was especially wondering about the impact on her family, previously described as close and loving. There were also problems with language, possibly due to translation. ( )

A very good book, all who can, should read it. A short review, I know, but that's it - a good book, a story of secrets, fears, loves, friendships, moving forward into the unknown in a world of fear but also of love. ( )

I enjoyed the premise of this book, however I found it was in need of further editing and it wasn't overly memorable. ( )

I tried to get through this book but lost interest very early on. I believe the storyline is good, but I found too much nonsense description, and I found it hard to follow.
