I didn't read much of this book. The writing made me unhappy. There are no inline references and no proper academic-style discussion that builds and sustains the argument. With this, the author jumps around from concept to concept without explaining each one before moving on and glossing over why he sees the links as logical, not building a case for us. It's a book of opinions, nothing more solid is demonstrated.
I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley.com.
