This was a really interesting and thought provoking book which was written in a very accessible style.
Robin Ince has combined his love of stand up comedy and comedy performers, with his interest in science in order to bring us a different take on answering some serious life questions. Moving from whether childhood experience really affects our adult selves, to the true impact of grief, Ince uses scientific knowledge to try and explain these and other life issues, while mixing in lots of anecdotes and quotes from famous comedians
I do not have enough scientific knowledge to know how accurate the science parts are, but the book is clearly written with a minimum of jargon, and makes alot of sense to a non-scientist. It also had plenty of humour as you'd expect from a stand up!!
This was a different type of book to those I normally choose, but I'm glad I got this one. Thanks readers first for giving me the opportunity to read.
