This is a humorous look at human psychology. Some reviewers seem disappointed that the book doesn't go in depth enough; this was its strength for me. If I wanted to have a full understanding of anxiety then I would probably buy a book on that specific subject by a qualified psychologist! This book is a gentle look at life using Robin Ince's experiences as a comedian.
As well as talking to psychologists to fill in the more science-y information, there are plenty of anecdotes and examples of humanity lifted from Robin and his comedian friends and acquaintances. I very much enjoyed reading this as a lighter non-fiction book. Not too heavy on the jargon, just the right amount of anecdotal evidence that I could relate to.
