nice work

a most enjoyable, penetrating look into the mind of a genius. We see the beauty of Laing's thought and his amazing contributions to the field of mental health. We are treated to a thorough character assessment and loving, if at times probing, analysis of what Laing was all about.This work is written in a conversational but educated tone that lends itself nicely to the subject matter.Highly recommended if you have not read all the others.
