Who the book is for?
A Fitful Life is a book that will be of interest to the philosopher. The philosopher will be interested in the psycho-spiritual experiences documented during seizure activity and will be left wanting to know how disruptions in cell voltages result in such vivid, convincing psycho-spiritual experiences. They will also be interested in reading about the author's experiences of spiritual awakenings that are related to the author's consistent meditation practice.
The psychologist will be interested in what the philosopher will be interested in as well as the reading about mental health symptom self-management. The psychologist will also be interested in how cognitive tools can be used to defuse seizure activity as well as reduce seizure frequency. The psychologist will also be interested in Chapter 29 that's about the meditation induced spiritual awakening of 2018 that led to the author becoming aware of an all shades of grey continuum that explains IQ and ability to apply intellect to practice and where you are on this continuum will determine things like how many friends you will have and your compatibility with society. It will have psychologists have to ask whether 'Personality Disorder' is instead 'High Functioning Personality'.
