challenging informative reflective slow-paced

3.5

The parts I understood changed my life, unfortunately, I didn't understand all that much. 
But seriously, read this(!) but also, be aware of the (surprise) academic vocabulary.

This book was so illuminating. However, I don't think the author succeeded in keeping his language accessible. A lot of it is quite academic.
