Fowie is on page 250 of 329 of Physics of the Impossible
The first section was really cool. The second section was okay. The third section made me realize that astrophysics is just religion for people who look down on conventional religion. But the first part is DEFINTELY worth the read.

Fowie is on page 100 of 242 of Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us
I'm enjoying it so far. It's a little more textbook-ish than I thought it would be, so some times I find myself thinking "wow, this would be great for a manager to read, maybe not so much for someone who wants to personally motivate themselves". But the ideas are pretty good. I'm really surprised at how much I see this type of system already being implemented in my current job too. And how effective it already is.

Really surprised about the somewhat accurate, full chapter on the Mormons. Didn't know that was in there...

He's still too wordy, but he has a lot of good points. Still not sure if I really like the book, or I am just too embarrassed to quit early

Wordy...he's trying to be too scholarly. I like his views, but he's trying too hard to sound smart.

This guy is like a real-live Indiana Jones--and his brother is Thomas Kane that helped the "Mormons"!
