L'opinion publique estime que les tenanciers de bar sont des thérapeutes amateurs. La même chose pourrait être dite au sujet des chauffeurs de taxi.Andrew NJANJO s'installe à Londres en 1994 et dès 1996, exerce en qualité de chauffeur de taxi. Il prête une oreille attentive à tous ceux qui croisent son chemin et offre inlassablement au passage des conseils, mis au parfum de la dernière actualité. Il décrit dans ce livre, avec une minutie et une vivacité déconcertantes, comment son caractère et sa personnalité ont été affectés, parfois si profondément, par l'expérience acquise, au contact de milliers d'étrangers qui ont été, le temps d'un instant, aussi court fût-il, mais très enrichissant, passagers de son taxi.Le Taxi-Science se veut un mémoire, mais il en est plus. Il explique, à travers des récits saisissants des faits de société riches et variés qu'a vécus l'auteur, comment sa perception a changé et a évolué sur les questions de race, de religion, de politique et de parité Homme-Femme. Les histoires racontées ici sont empreintes de tristesse et expriment quelques fois le désespoir. Elles sont souvent éclairantes et réconfortantes quand elles ne sont pas simplement hilarantes et triomphantes, comme c'est le cas des récits de nombreux passagers francophones, d'apparence raciste, qui ne tiennent nullement compte des compétences linguistiques de leur chauffeur, illustrant ainsi le profond impact psychologique que conducteur et passagers ont, l'un sur l'autre.Thérapeute de fortune, le chauffeur de taxi est très souvent victime des menaces des passagers. Le risque de glisser subrepticement dans la vie du client est donc grand. Parfois, ce glissement est inévitable. Le Taxi-Science explore avec honnêteté, intégrité et humour comment cette incursion dans la vie de l'autre peut s'opérer et évalue ce qu'une relation aussi intime peut signifier pour les deux parties.
