Book Review: Your Call Is (Not That) Important to Us: Customer Service and What It Reveals About Our World and Our Lives by Emily Yellin
Book: Your Call Is (Not That) Important to Us: Customer Service and What It Reveals About Our World and Our Lives by Emily Yellin
About: Yellin tours customer service centers and talks to customers, call center workers, call system designers and business executives to provide a 360 degree view of the customer service industry.
Pros: An interesting look at an industry I had no idea was so complex. Makes you feel for abused customer service reps. A few fun facts: Fedex is the largest airline in the world and at some fast food restaurant drive-thrus, your order may be taken from someone at a call center hundreds of miles away and the order info gets relayed to the restaurant that you are ten feet from.
Cons: While sources are cited in the back (in "page number, sentence cited, source" format), I prefer in-text citations. I would have liked to know why some call center workers cannot reveal their location. No real conclusion, just sort of ends.

Book Review: Life in Rewind: The Story of a Young Courageous Man Who Persevered Over OCD and the Harvard Doctor Who Broke All the Rules to Help Him
Book: Life in Rewind: The Story of a Young Courageous Man Who Persevered Over OCD and the Harvard Doctor Who Broke All the Rules to Help Him by Terry Weible Murphy, Michael A. Jenike, and Edward E. Zine
About: The story of Edward Zine, a man with very severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and his path to recovery. After his mother's death, Ed's OCD started manifesting itself, doing things in even numbers lead to doing every action a second time, but backwards, to "even things out." Soon, Ed ended up confined in his basement for years, dirty and surrounded by bags of feces and bottles of urine, his disease keeping him imprisoned. Dr. Michael Jenike, a psychiatrist who specializes in OCD, paid Ed a visit and started him on the road to getting well.
Pros: Engaging and at times tragic story
Cons: The far-too-long subtitle is a bit inaccurate as Murphy admits that Dr. Jenike only "may have" provided the spark that motivated Ed to recover (as Ed pretty much did all his recovery himself). So the book should be titled Life in Rewind: The Story of a Young Courageous Man Who Persevered Over OCD. The relationship between the two men seems trumped up for literary purposes as the two did not see one another for over a year and only spoke a few times via phone after the house call. Murphy paints Jenike as some kind of super doctor who "answers 300 emails a day" from his patients and tells some patients to "pay what they want."There are a bunch of photos in the middle of the book, which I hate and would prefer them spread out over the book.
