so-so
Definitely not my favourite of the Object Lessons series. My preferred books in this series are about what a thing is, how it evolved, etc. This is a memoir about being a doctor, and about being a son, and about being a parent. It's also casually dismissive of hypochondriacs (a pet peeve, since I have extreme anxiety and am definitely not deliberately wasting doctors' time, and I hate the attitude that I am purposefully doing so).
willaful People who dismiss something for being “all in your mind“ are dismissing an incredibly powerful force. 10mo
