Title: Digerati: An intellectual vacuum?
Product review: I happened to check the book out from the library, so I am happy to say I did not waste any money on it. Some books are readable and interesting. Other books may be readable and boring. Unfortunately this book is unreadable, owing to an idiotic typography that acts as a constant visual hiccup, so the issue of interest or boredom is barely relevant. From the few pages I did go through before giving up in disgust -- and with a headache -- I can only say that rarely have I read someone so ignorant of culture, so poor in intellect, and having so much pretensions to a high brow culture. Maybe Brockman thinks that it brushes off on him just by rubbing shoulders with some more or less "famous" people. In his case it clearly does not.Bottom line - unreadable, empty, and pretentious.
