Title: How now sacred brown cow
Product review: Mr. Lakshminarayan's review is not a review at all; it's a smug and self-satisfied misreading of Nietzsche and Foucault, a transparent piece of projection/reaction formation. Ignore it. This book is not intended to change the world, but rather to reflect it in such a way that the reader laughs, squirms, recognizes his/her own hypocrisy and the blatant absurdity of most unquestioned social conventions. In this, Crasta succeeds in ways not unlike Sasha Baron Cohen's Borat character or Chris Rock race routines succeed, i.e., brilliantly. As social criticism the book is potent enough, but the sheer zany exuberance of it all make it far more than that-a delicious and mischievious pleasure. Highly recommended.
