Desde la parábola de la ventana rota hasta las fábulas que desenmascararon al proteccionismo, este libro narra su vida como la de un rebelde que eligió la risa como arma.

At the age of twenty-seven, Gerad suffered a life-altering breakdown. When conventional treatments failed to help, he sought an alternative solution and immersed himself in the teachings of ancient Chinese philosophy and acupuncture. According to this system of medicine, we are all made up of the five elements of Nature (wood, fire, earth, metal, water). When they are in balance, we thrive; when they are not, chaos ensues. Sceptical at first, but desperate to feel well, Gerad took a leap of faith—one that was to open his eyes to a new way of being.
