This book and other like it have to be taken for what they are. Springboards to solid ideas. No, I have no desire to write about the pitfalls a vegetarianism, but it got me thinking about other lifestyles and habits we commonly see and what their pitfalls may be, whether political, financial, emotional or otherwise.

Many of the ideas are simply too broad to be used as they are. Instead, they are great to get you thinking in new directions and find some facet of a broad issue that intrigues you enough to write about it. I use the book to help me come up with ideas for articles. The final product is often far removed from the phrase that launched it.

at least not at the level of anyone at my college, anyway. i found this book to be of absolutely no use to me. maybe ill give it to my twelve year old sister. furthermore, i was very disappointed in the non-neutrality of the selection of topics. it is obviously that ms lamm is very conservative. the pitfalls of vegetarianism? the pros and cons of womens rights? what cave did she just crawl out of? i hope her eyes adjusted to the light before she wrote her second edition.
