Negative Positive
Title: Dated but Pretty Accurate in Many Respects
Review: It's hard to criticize a book written 15 years ago which makes bold predictions that don't come to fruition, but are pretty close to the mark. After the LA Riots and the increase in crime in the early 90's, the idea of America fragmenting along racial lines seemed pretty compelling but I think the author overestimated the speed at which collapse would take place. In any event, this book is a worthwhile read because many of the predictions concerning a possible collapse and civil war may still come to pass. In addition, the author provides some good information on what to do if things fall apart. It seems to me that we are more likely to move towards a police state and economic collapse, rather than outright civil war, but it is also easy to see the polarization of our country that could confirm the author's vision in the next 5 to 10 years on account of failed leadership from both political parties.
Is the review positive or negative?
