Going sane Book

I had a number of issues with this book, which can be summed up as mostly relating to AP's interpretations of sex (too straight (off) Freudian), mental health disorders like autism and schizophrenia (which I felt he mostly just used as imagery for his own devices) and repetitive use of certain words (e.g. ineluctably). However, AP's vision of sanity is a rather charming one, perhaps best illustrated by this quotation from the very last pages: "The kindest thing a sane adult can do is assume that other people can make choices, while being mindful of the areas of people's lives in which choice does not apply ... and that humiliating another person is the worst thing we ever do." That I like.
