An excellent anthology with great variety. I wasn't altogether impressed with the Obama article (I found the writing stodgy) but I understood why it was included. From the serious to the whimsical (Can psychopathy ever be successfully treated? What if we could save the planet by bringing back mammoths?), this was a rewarding collection that repeatedly drew me in with new ideas and solid wordsmithing.
