[Miki · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very interesting, thought-provoking, poignant book. It does have some examples that grew old in the meantime and are not relevant anylonger (no paper version of manuscripts is ever required as far as I know) but the core message still applies and the main points still hold true not only for periphery places in New Zealand but also for minor institutions in the heart of big European cities.
