Despite being read by a Robot, It is an amazing book. Especially when it is free! Thank you Google and my hat's off to those who actually read this book. I would recommend.

This is read by an auto generated voice (text-to-speech) which mispronounces some words and often lacks important intonation, making some run on sentences harder to understand. Certainly listenable though.

He stated his conclusions based on his life's research. We should respect that. But every one has the responsibility to make their own conclusions. Not just accept other's opinion blindly.
