"there are some things I truly missed, like a more philosophical take and gender theories. I expected to find learn more about why these anatomical figures were mainly women and what some of the theories behind it would have been. The philosophical ideas that were discussed, were quickly mentioned before moving on (and some I didn't really find that important in a book about wax women). But it really was a very interesting introduction and the list with places to visit was also very much appreciated (i missed a few, but still)."
