1.0 out of 5 stars poorly done. poorly thought out
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2015

The book was so poorly put together with some pages reading vertical and other horizontal. I've always suspected Thomas Szasz to be a loon. If this poorly presented mishmash is an example. I tried to refuse download of the book and got it anyway. What a mess!

1.0 out of 5 stars Font way too small!!!
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2016
I love Thomas Szasz but unfortunately this ebook was very hard to read! Not because I could not understand it but because the print/font was so small I needed a magnifying glass to read it!
I tried changing the font but it would not change so it was frustrating!
