I liked the book overall. It made arguments that were both important and backed up with a variety of statistics. Overall I believe that this book makes an excellent point that Americans are not trying to yell to each other across a Grand Canyon of sorts, although activists and politicians are. Instead most Americans are moderates and the political climate with extremists and activists dominating each party.
