Parts of this book were really good, and as a whole, I'd recommend it.

However, it took me a long time to get through it, because the writing is repetitive and often bland. It seemed to me that he began and ended each chapter as if he were serializing the book, and had to catch the reader up to date.

Also, the book is only technically 250 pages. It's actually about 160, plus notes and bibliography.
