It has been a long time since I read this book, so I really do not remember much more than being somewhat surprised that I found just about everybody I knew in this book. Then again I have a news clip between the pages called: Genetic defect linked to hyperactivity is discovered. This runs in families so perhaps we are all more or less altogether in this.
