Book Reviews of Astonish Yourself: 101 Experiments in the Philosophy of Everyday Life

Book Review: A peculiar little book and we need more of them.
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is so strange and esoteric that it almost borders on the occult. It reminds me of the wonderful book, "The Secret Life of Plants" for it's "out thereness". I tried a few of the experiments and one that was like a revelation to me was the one about channel surfing AM radio late at night in the dark. People don't believe that there is more of a Art Bell-type world out there than previously thought. There are so many books on the market pretending to be relevant and informative, when basically they are trivia rehashed or made to appeal to Gen X and fringe/cutting edge pop culture. This one hits a home run because some of the experiments are actually very interesting.
