Bukunya lumayan sih, pertanyaan simpel dengan jawaban yang simpel juga. Saya suka dengan ilustrasinya.
Pertanyaan dari yang menyentil sampai pertanyaan ga penting.

Is there a life on other planet?
....Why concern ourselves with life on other planet. until we improve the life of all within our sphere of influence on earth?

Does prayer really work?
ask those who've been healed of cancer.
ask soldierswho've fought a war and returned to tell about it.
ask those who've been bitter and now feel love.

ada juga yang bikin senyum baca jawabannya, kaya gini ini
why do you always seem to find things in the last place you look?
when you find them, you stop looking. Haha, bener juga!
