Title: A tedious polemic and waste of time
Product review: Only 10 years old and it already seems outdated, this sort of peevish crankiness from spoiled academics complaining about the idiot conversations going on in their subsidized ivory towers is an affront to every inhabitant of the real world. It is astonishing the waste of intellectual energy the baby boom generation has indulged in.The only portion of the book I found slightly worth the trouble was the section on the Goddess-hype in anthropology, which allowed me to indulge my mild curiousity in the subject without having to wade into volumes of feminist cant; but if you wanted to actually be the least informed about any subject, this isn't the place to look.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
