Enlightening and very thorough, but also very detailed. Favours covering all arguments and perspectives over offering a pleasant read (that does not feel repetitive).
Happy I read it. I feel wiser for it, and it made me think. Still, quite a struggle to "push through" at times, though not inaccessible or particularly difficult to read.
