"This book is BEYOND brilliant" by Chris G. -
In a series of essays - each no more that a compact ± 2 pages long - this remarkable book, written by the smartest people on the planet, should be compulsory reading for every learner/student/adult. Never preachy, it touches on every aspect of our planet and its inhabitants, past, present and (we hope!) future. I cannot recommend this book highly enough - it will expand your vocabulary as well as your thinking. And as a bonus, Loot's price is about half that of the bookstore's! You MUST read this book.
