This book was great in the beginning. But after a while it got way too political for me. Considering this book was originally written in 1965 says a lot. I'm not saying that the book is dated. Just that there was a lot going on then and the book reflects that. And most of the ideals carry over into our time and space as well. So all-in-all good. Other than that the book was very good and I enjoyed it.
Eh. Tao for Dummies.
