Zak reviewed They Don't Represent Us by Lawrence Lessig
Review of "They Don't Represent Us" on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
I listened as an audiobook. Overall, I’m a big fan. It gave new words to a lot of the thoughts I’ve had for a while now, and got me thinking about a few things in a less partisan way. I’m dubious of the possibility of implementing the change this book demonstrates as necessary, but it doesn’t skirt the issue of that difficulty, either.

I’d recommend this book to anyone who’s in therapy, considering therapy, or just wants to learn how to be a better version of themselves.
