A fun informative listen.

I missed some turns driving into Atlanta during rush hour. I got to finish the book though, so it was an enjoyable experience. Life's going to suck a little bit, but not for the most part. Chill out and learn to enjoy it. She has great insights for doing that.

Speculation

Revisado: 02-23-21

The title of this book is speculation. The self-evident conclusions are speculation.

My respect to the author for providing a counter argument.

My thoughts are philosophical in nature.

If a person is sick and sneezes on you, would you have perhaps prefered they were wearing a mask?

If you go to the doctor and the doctor tells you there is a pill recommended by other doctors and is also recommend by the government that they feel may save your life from a dangerous infection but admits that it may also do nothing. Would you take the pill?

If the doctor told you that by taking it, It may help prevent you from endangering your loved ones from infection because it's possible to be Asymptomatic, Would you take the pill?

I will be wearing my n95 for the sake of my family and neighbors.

I will be getting the vacation as soon as it is available to me.

I disagree with this publication strongly on nearly every conclusion.

I also do not believe the doctor is ignorant in medicine, just in understanding the nature of risk, which is by definition in life, not on paper, and is unknowable.

Again my respects, I will keep an open mind as more information becomes available over time and in the meantime will act on the side of utmost caution, as the price of being wrong is not something I want to live with.

Brilliant!

Revisado: 11-10-20

I have listened to and enjoyed many books that attempt to tackle the complexity of this topic and it not a easy task by any means.

It is easy to underappreciated the complexity of trying to translates the language of quantum mechanics to someone who is new to the idea.

So often these types of books tend to over simplify, miss the point, go off on a nonsensical tangent that tends to become background noise after the third syllable, get it wrong entirely (probably), be bias, or worst of all, have a terrible nariator with a voice that unfortunately never graduated High school or is so mono tone, you listen to it to help you fall asleep at night.

And on that Note,

The performance was amazing!

Few books are as engaging and passionate as Tim James when he is speaking about what he loves and he managed to talk about a topic that doesn't make any sense whatsoever and proceed to convey the problem with such clarity that you can finally understand and appreciate the full scale of the mind F that it is.

Thank you Tim James! If you are reading this, I really Truly appreciated your book and look forward to listening to your work in the future. 15/10 Will definitely recommend to everyone in many divergent universes, including this one.

Insightful

Her insights are applicable and the folklore she interprets helps the message stick. It's short but packed.
