I'm not sure what I expected, but there was something about the book that did not end up peaking my interest, I was not sad to return the book unfinished when the loan period was up.
The title captures your interest, the summary as well because it's a topic and presentation that I've never seen before, the tone is light-hearted, and the level of information provided is exceptional considering the author has neatly bundled complex topics into one or two pages to give a reader unfamiliar with the topic, enough information to distinguish this topic from other, simiilar topics.
Maybe it was the attempt at presenting the various topics as part of a travel guidebook fell short of the mark. But given the topics presented, I don't see how it could be presented in any way closer to a guidebook than it is already.
