it was amazing
bookshelves: neuroscience, favorites

Reading this book reminded me again of how I should change my rating strategy at Goodreads. So, from now on I will include a new factor in my ratings: Being a transformative and life-altering experience! That is, if reading a book made a history in my life or not. I wouldn't give a book full 5 stars whatever interesting, informative and nice it was unless it arms me with a special tool to view the world and this book was definitely one of them.
I really believe this book is so much underrated and deserves much more attention and reader. Could it be because people without any medical or scientific background find it difficult to get through? I assume not as the book is almost jargon free. Is it because people in general are less interested in reading serious books with a scientific atmosphere? This sounds more valid to me. Anyway, reading this book, I feel I got a new vision in understanding and categorizing people's behaviors and characters and even made me know myself better and that's where it's unique revolutionary effect was on my views. Highly recommended to anyone interested in understanding the human behavior and the core elements governing it.
I've been postponing writing reviews only after the second read but was so excited about this one that passed my own rules. So, may add some updates after the second read.
