Incredible hunting. Another vexing thing about the book (which I love as you know) was all the looseygoosey slinging of clinical terms, which seems a weird slipup for a scientist. But the Barthes abuse definitely a graver error!! I lol'd at the Jonah Lehrer plot twist
Oof the using epigraphs thing hits close to home but 100% spot on. Brutal to abandon them entirely but if present I'd say the text should engage and contextualize them.
