Title: Disappointing
Review: This cumbersome, meandering volume was a real disappointment. Written in an academic and uncaptivating style with so many asides and footnotes that the reading experience was exhausting. Though an avid reader, I gave up on this book after 200 pages. Though the content was good, the writing was scattered and too detailed; the author's scope too large; and his points poorly interrelated. Pick it up at your local library if you must.
