Amazing and disheartening

5 estrellas

For a while, this was the most disheartening book i've read. It almost convinced me that some experiences from my past had left me almost beyond repair. Fortunately the last few chapter reignited my hope in it being reversible.

Aside from that, I found the overall book well argued and certain parts, like his discussion on game theory and its applications toward altruism and social cooperation truly fascinating
