I didn't realize that this wasn't the first of the Flow books when I ordered it. Otherwise I would not have bothered. Csikszentmihalyi's work had been recommended to me by a friend.
I have a feeling I would have gotten much more out of this had I read Flow first. As it was, this felt to me like a patchwork of ideas, anecdotes and research fragments about an idea that the author assumed I already knew at least a little bit about. My fault, not his, probably. Some of it was interesting.
