The Reason I Jump
Book invites you, his reader, to imagine a daily life in which your faculty of speech is taken away. Explaining that you?re hungry, or tired, or in pain, is now as beyond your powers as a chat with a friend. I?d like to push the thought-experiment a little further. Now imagine that after you lose your ability to communicate, the editor-in-residence who orders your thoughts walks out without notice. The chances are that you never knew this mind-editor existed but, now that he or she has gone, you realize too late how they allowed your mind to function for all these years. A dam-burst of ideas, memories, impulses and thoughts is cascading over you, unstoppably. Your editor controlled this flow, diverting the vast majority away, and recommending just a tiny number for your conscious consideration. But now you?re on your own.
