I enjoyed this collection of essays. I think many of their arguments are very strong and I'd like to see them more popular among the left. I especially like how they provide a degree of scientific rigor which is lost in most of the contemporary left. The section on Venezuela is very interesting, but unfortunately it was written before the economic disaster. It however does seem to suggest alternatives that Chavez and Maduro could have pursued to avoid disaster, but they of course did not.
