Exuberance: The Passion for Life Exuberance: The Passion for Life

recommended for: people who find life drab and dull

Did you know that porcupines love to dance? That Theodore Roosevelt let kids run around wild in the White House? That Winston Churchill compared himself to a glow worm?

Unfortunately, Kay Redfield Jamison's examples of human exuberance are almost all white men; nevertheless, this is an incredibly enjoyable read. It made me happy to be alive.
