Summary of this Book...
The author has a very funny, entertaining writing style that kept me interested through to the very end. I would have actually been tempted to put the book down sooner if not for the author's sense of humor; my biggest complaint with the book is that a lot of the studies and examples cited are prevalent in a lot of other places. If you are the kind of person who is interested in self-improvement, cognitive development, social sciences, etc., you're probably already familiar with the vast majority of examples in this book from various podcasts, blogs, essays, textbooks, etc. Even so, the author presents the information in an entertaining enough way that I didn't mind that the majority of the book was rehashed and retold stories that I'd already heard.
