Review:

"Fierce as death is love" Solomon 8:6 seems like an excellent summary of this book (it is quoted near the end).  The prose is lovely and made me laugh out loud more than once.  The premise, that brain patterns could be captured and then learned was wonderful.  The corollary to "Flowers for Algernon" was obvious from the start and reinforced in the book itself.
