How the Pill Changes Everything

Jamieson

3.5*

Some chapters (especially those more toward the start) were SO good and some were a miss. The tone of the writing annoyed me at times. I also didn't like that a lot of the examples presented in this book were just assumptions made by the author - while I understand this is an under-researched area, I really didn't like that entire chapters were based around concepts that might maybe be real potentially if our assumptions are onto something. 

That said, the chapters that were good were GOOD. The section about different generations of the pill and the impact of the pill on mental health and mood were great. It was just when it leant too heavily into speculation and evolutionary psychology I was put off. Overall, still worth the read for me.
