I was very disappointed by this book. It was pseudo-technical and an orgy of presumptuousness backed only by appeals to authority.
But, it is easy to read and initially oddly entertaining. So if you don't mind wasting a few bucks, you should still buy it. Just don't expect to learn anything of real value to your professional career.
