Book Reviews of Generosity: An Enhancement
Book Review: A Generous Author
Summary: 5 Stars
There is simply no better writer out there--his grasp of both science and human nature, his startlingly accurate images, his unexpected dead-on humor, the vocabulary, and the meshing of ideas are astounding. Although I have my favorites (Operation Wandering Soul, The Time of Our Singing), I treasure them all. I have found, however, that people I've recommended them to often find immersion difficult. I'd counsel patience--you'll be lured in and finally very disappointed that the book ends.
