I've assigned my feature writing class to read this book, and I am rereading it along with the class to assemble assignments along the way. Even going back over the intro to chapter five, I am immediately pulled into and amazed by this book all over again.
You see, I've always believed in education, fiercely in fact. But, if anything, education merely points out one's ignorance in the larger world. There is no "done." There is no graduation from learning.
Just when you think you have put it all aside or arrived at your final world view destination, in comes something that the mind simply cannot erase.
Read this book. Expect to be changed.
