At 18 he continued as a street performer and went to University College London to study psychology, partly because it "was right around the corner". He shared accommodation as a student with Adrian Owen, later also to become a psychologist. In his years as a street performer he learned how to adapt or get out of what you are doing because "Sometimes you would start your act and after five minutes there was no audience." He moved to Edinburgh where he obtained his PhD in Psychology from the University of Edinburgh for research supervised by Robert L. Morris.

Fair enough, I guess, since I imagine that a book like this could easily become bogged down and boring. And like I said, it was amusing enough in parts and there genuinely were plenty of ‘huh, that’s interesting’ moments.
