On the positive side, Dr. Marlow paints vivid images and describes his journey, which I generally find interesting. He also, at times, uses some very clever language and great analogies. But I found that much of the language was too literary and not only did I have to parse complex ideas, I also had to parse what to me was unnecessarily complex language. The book is also very information-dense and by two-thirds of the way through, my interest was not sustained and I stopped reading; however, I suspect that people more interested in the subject will find the book a great resource. Thank you to Netgalley and Random House for the advance reader copy.
