How do we determine sanity? What's a healthy relationship between mind and world? Are bread dumplings bad for astronomy? To answer these and other important questions, let's take a look at this fascinating novel.

Here's the full exclusive interview with Adam Ehrlich Sachs [warning: spoilers]:   / 55729468

If you hop the paywall for the rest of the posts at   / whatstherapy   you can hear (and download) a louder and shorter version of the piano tune in the background of this video, as well as a longer version of the outro beat. And other stuff from the past of course (and the future).

Credit for the art of the old astronomer from the book's cover goes to Alex Merto (https://alexmerto.com). I figured it would be o.k. to use my adaptation of this image in the intro/outro to this video, and the thumbnail, since this video is completely and positively about the book, and I figured it would be considered fair use since the image has been adapted and transformed significantly. If you are the artist of this image or the publisher of this book and you disagree with my judgment on this, let me know.
