== Synopsis ==
'''Click Click Snap''' is written in first person prose. In the book, Sean McGowan travels through [[Athens]], [[Ephesus]], [[Bent Jbail]], [[Beirut]], [[Damascus]], [[The West Bank]], [[Petra]], and [[Cairo]]; completing the eight chapters of the book, respectively.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://worldwidesean.blogspot.com/2007/10/book-synopsis.html |title=The author's synopsis |access-date=2007-10-15 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708072619/http://worldwidesean.blogspot.com/2007/10/book-synopsis.html |archive-date=2011-07-08 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Its diverse (and, arguably, scattered) topics mainly include the neuroscience of art, war, belief, racism.

Unusually, each chapter is written as a self-sustaining [[joke]], where more serious topics seemingly arise incidentally. Specific incidents include urinating on the [[Temple of Artemis]] to illustrate the benefits of biological satisfaction and stealing a federal election ballot at gunpoint during the [[Syrian presidential election, 2007|2007 elections in Syria]] to show "...even though there is such a thing as a ballot with only one name on it, there is no such thing as a clear choice."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://mcgowan.libiblio.com/clickclicksnap.pdf |title=Click Click Snap PDF version released through Libiblio |access-date=2007-10-15 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110713203621/http://mcgowan.libiblio.com/clickclicksnap.pdf |archive-date=2011-07-13 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
