Book Review: Exercise for the Brain
Summary: 3 Stars
T.W. is like one of those black lights so many of us had when we were teenagers back in the seventies, Illuminating but not brillant. I beleive the world functions in terms of strong and weak, my gut tells me, T.W. does not agree and as an admitted interloper, his displacing of childhood domestic anger would had been of better use say in 1968. There is a bigger picture here, that to me supercedes his and that is we ALL are not that smart and that Mother Nature will always rule and win over Human nature. A litte perspective would be nice, say a vacation to Dafur.
