Review of 'The book of highs' on 'Goodreads'

Perhaps I expected something else? This feels like reading an outline of writing ideas. I suppose it would be useful for discovering things you didn't know existed and getting a brief summary about each.

I have to say that there were some interesting parts. Some of the chapters, er... topics, were juxtaposed in funny ways. In the same section, you'll find "Changing your thermostat" along with "Trepanning" (drilling literal holes in your head).

Maybe changing the name to "Catalog of Highs" would be more accurate. Anyways, kinda cool book.
