I relate so much to this book. Like Harris, I'm a driven journalist and I've been living in my head all this while. At times humorous, at times sobering, this memoir actually inspired me to start meditating because it doesn't have the woo woo vibe that some books on meditation have. Harris' down-to-earth account (he hates the syrupy language used in meditation circles and so do I) did convince me - a big time sceptic to attempt the practice. And you know what? After just two weeks of consistent practice, I'm already starting to feel better for it. Read this if you want to know what meditation from the perspective of a non-believer turned believer.
