This book brings up some very serious issues, but Walsh has an amazing ability to weave comedy in effortlessly.
My only gripe was that it was basically the documentary but in book form, so as someone who had seen the documentary, it did get a bit repetitive. If you have access to the documentary, great, I definitely liked watching it more than reading it. However, if you only have access to the book, this is a great alternative and gets the point across just as well.
I think the issues brought up in this book are very important to consider, especially as they become more relevant in society. This book does an amazing job at providing many different perspectives in the form of all the interviews Walsh conducted. It definitely gave me a “bigger picture” view on the topic, and I think I came away from reading this as a more knowledgeable person.
