This book was a good synthesis of information, the ideas of which I believe will be become more important as time goes on. I have also read the scandals around John Lehrer and mused it over. The only thing notable that might be scandalous about this book according to material I found was Mr.Lehrer recycled much of his own previous material. I don’t see what is wrong with re-using sentencing from previous works as Alan Watts, Michael Pollen, and Dan Ariely all do. What should be looked at is the irony of an age which pushes for the illusion of greatness as greatness and then slams people for being outed for not having the imagery of perfection.
As for John Lehrer’s other scandalous issues like completely making up Bob Dylan quotes is rather appealing.
