Sachs's popular books consistently embellished reality to make a better popular read, and never really got called out on it by the scientific community , perhaps because psychiatry was rather unscientific --or rather pseudodcientific -- thought the early decades of Zach's career. Sachs wasn't exremely harmful in this respect (relative to the horrors of pre-21st century psychiatry, including the folder it gave to the rise of Scientology to prey on The mentally ill), but still provided more infotainment than education.

It is interesting that the author claims that getting a 37% guess correct a few times consecutively, in one measured attempt, is unsurprising.
