Title: Interesting on many levels
Review: This "Essay in Book's Clothing" can be appreciated on three levels.1 - At the surface, it's a pedantic description of the subject. What is bull****? What isn't? Why? How does it differ from lying?2 - At a secondary level, one might interpret the whole essay as bull****ing on bull****. I suspect this was not intended as the purpose of the essay, but it is an interpretation.3 - If you take it seriously, the essay is an attack on cultural reletavism - the idea that truth is not objective. The author attacks bull****ters not because they lie, but that they have a complete disregard for the truth. At least liars respect the truth enough to be false. The bull**** artist does not care one way or the other.It's a bit wordy in getting the point across (strange for a 67 page book!) but still worth reading. It won't take long to understand it - honest!
