Title: A regrettably 'Lite' treatment of an important issue
Review: When I checked this out of my library, I was looking forward to an insightful read of a really critical topic for our time. What I found instead was a very fluffy book, long on statements, short on facts and real insights. Taking a good look at the references shows one of the problems - many of the references are from newspapers and magazines, not journals or analytical works. I can almost imagine the author sorting out a shoebox of clippings while outlining the chapters.If you want something with some real substance to it, you'll have to look elsewhere. I don't think it's an accident that the author's picture doesn't appear on the book jacket.
Is the review positive or negative?
