Pulling Back the Curtain: Feminism, Socialism & the Nature of Freedom
A philosophical journey that questions everything we think we know about politics, pulling back the curtain on popular misconceptions and conventions. Starting with feminism and transitioning to socialism, this culminates with the very nature of freedom itself, and how to resolve the political problems we see. Alongside autobiographical elements, this book serves as a useful resource for those wishing to develop their understanding of philosophy, minus the dry academic delivery all too often accompanying this subject.

Consider this book as an easy to follow guide to the ideological status quo of Western civilization (from where we are going and towards what we are going, and why). In my opinion the author did pretty well by achieving this goal without going into overwhelming amount of details, facts and names. He managed to squeeze a lot of information into 200 something pages by focusing on essentials. Though the format of the book is interesting (the author uncovered topics gradually according to the timeline of his "personal journey"), it still covers the essentials: from key names in philosophy and politics to key points of ideological movements and their impact on civilization itself. Feminism, liberalism, Marxism, Communism, Fascism, capitalism, socialism - it's all covered with easy to check sources.
