As a vegan, a lot of this book pissed me off. (NO, Mr. Pollan, you were NOT a vegetarian if you were still eating sea creatures, even if they didn't have faces. THEY ARE STILL ANIMALS! And NO, Mr. Pollan, humans DID NOT evolve to be able to process lactose after infancy. Fewer than half of humans can do that properly. And NO, Mr. Pollan, humans aren't required to eat animals products to get vitamin B12, which is grown on bacteria, not inherent in animal flesh. We used to get it in our water and likely from veggies. This was before the water was chlorinated and the veggies throughly scrubbed cleaned. We can still get it from bacteria and take it in pill form.) Regardless of my disagreements with him on many important issues, I was still riveted by audiobook. I must listen again, at least to the first half. Corn. There's a lot about corn. I'm officially against high-fructose corn syrup now (I kinda already was...), and I'm so sad for the cows who are being made to eat corn. And the salmon too; salmon shouldn't eat corn! He says "You are what you eat", but maybe it's more true that "you are what you eat, eats". So if the cows and chickens and salmons eat corn, and you eat them... you're made of corn. Did you know McDonald's Chicken McNuggets are more than 50% corn (molecularly speaking, as the chicken flesh is made by the chicken eating corn; plus the corn starch, corn flour, corn oil, corn syrup, corn coloring, etc). Terrifying.

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking Author Susan Cain I've always considered myself a bit of an introvert. I never felt there was anything wrong with that; it's just the way I am. Introspective. Contemplative. Quiet. Reading Susan Cain's book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking" gave me an insight into myself. Many of the chapters in the book present some research, then use the research to help the reader understand some facet of introversion. To help provide some context, the author presents some hypothetical scenarios in which the lessons of research can be used to help introverts, or help people understand introverts. The author also provides some real-life scenarios based upon interviews with people who consider themselves introverted. Considering the nature versus nurture debates, it was interesting to read that genetics plays at least a partial role in introversion. However, the author also makes clear that the role isn't fully understood yet, and that lots of other things affect our personalities and temperaments. Towards the end of the book I found myself being torn by some conflicting messages in the book. One of the first messages that comes across is that there's nothing wrong with being an introvert. It's as if the book grabs you and says, "Look. Look at this! Research and more research, study after study proves there's nothing wrong with being an introvert. Some people are destined to be introverts. Introversion is a natural tendency. It has a genetic basis. It's part of who you are. There's nothing wrong with you." Okay, I get it. The conflicting message, however, is a subtle one. In addition to research, most of the chapters also present coping mechanisms of some sort; tricks introverts use to survive and interact in a world full of extroverts. The idea that introverted people have to find some way to cope; to change some part of who they are and how they act, seems to conflict with the idea that there's nothing wrong with being an introvert. If there's nothing wrong with being an introvert, why would they need to change? The answer is perhaps the most subtle part of the book: our society doesn't value, fully understand, or care about introverts. Maybe that's something that this book aims to change in the long run. I found "Quiet" to be an interesting and informative book, even if I don't agree with everything it presents.
