name:
The Case Against Reality: Why Evolution Hid the Truth from Our Eyes,
review:
This book was one of the most difficult reads so far. It definitely has valuable concepts and interesting perspectives. But reading it is just so painful that I wanted to give up in the first chapter itself. Things are excessively repetitive, often vague enough to make me browse back 10-15 pages to see if I had missed something explaining it, narratives jump across domains and seemingly unrelated topics that distracts immesely from what was being discussed, and to top it all - how designed jeans can make butts look bigger is used as an example of how our perception is not the 'objective reality'. Good topic, bad book.,
