Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
opens up the mind to think in new direction. Lots of technical details on brain and neuroscience, i sometimes felt the need to have a written copy so that i can refer the text themselves and do some further reading.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Maybe some more real life example, some drama
Have you listened to any of Fred Stella’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
yes, very good

Any additional comments?
