What if magic could help you to achieve good health, lasting happiness, true love and personal success? What if you could discover that you have all the magic you need lying dormant inside you and just need to be awakened? Peter Muir's first memoir, Pride and Prejudice Prevail, is written to help teenagers and adults who want to improve their health, happiness, love and success. Its unique advantage is that it is based on the author's actual life experience. You will read extra-ordinary stories of his life's ongoing journey of transformation which started with his acute awareness in childhood of the inequality, prejudice, discrimination and injustice that prevailed in his family, community, society and his country Jamaica. In 1937 he was born, the fifth of eight children, into a family so poor that they could not afford to send him to high school. How then, if not by magic, did he graduate from Harvard University in 1961? The first memoir, Pride and Prejudice Prevail, tells how he overcame poverty, severe illness and tremendous obstacles to achieve a good education, true love, financial security and a long life. It seeks to explain the factors that generated his philosophy, his passion and the goals that propelled him to have amazing love, financial success and lasting happiness, no matter what. Peter Muir's book, Mastaclass Magic, True Journey to Health, Happiness, Love and Success is a series of memoirs that tell of his struggles to overcome bad parenting, poverty, unhappiness, ill health, religious dogma and scarce opportunities for quality education, to achieve the ultimate goal of human beings; self-love, self-esteem, self-fulfillment, financial security and personal success. In Jamaica no government high schools were built until 1961.
From 1949 to 1958 his family was unable to pay the fees to send him to high school. Yet he achieved the highest Jamaican grades in the 1955 British Senior Cambridge Examinations and was valedictorian of his high school graduating class. Taking the U.S. SAT examinations, he ranked in the 97th percentile (top 3%) of participants in the world. He won several scholarships, including a full international scholarship to Harvard University, without prior knowledge of its prestige and Number 1 academic ranking in the world. He has given dedicated service to many charitable and community organizations. He also founded a scholarship program in his Rotary Club to assist inner-city youths in Kingston.
In Jamaica he was awarded "Volunteer of the Year 2006" for dedicated commitment to community and nation building in association with the United Nations Volunteer Program.

I love your detailed report of your childhood and youth from downtown Kingston to Harvard." Ulla Leis "Peter Muir's memoirs relate, with refreshing honesty and candor, tales of personal growth, struggle and determination to triumph over tremendous obstacles.
