This has got to be the worst thing ever written. I swear. Not one sentence in this book made any logical sense at all. It isn't even scientific! At least lets say Hegel in his logic (I mention Hegel because I had to study it alongside it - engaging with philosophy behind thinking - even then I have this sinking feeling that I don't even want to compare the two because that would be an insult to the genuine depth of Hegel's theories) was able to put into a comprehensive form the process in which he came to the conclusions of his argument that made sure to determine every possible outcome and scenario to get as close to the "ideological spirit" - that is the embodiment of truth - I mean, there was outstanding scientific rationalism to its process. Whereas this, seems to speak from the exact opposite end of the spectrum where the only logical progression to the 'theory' is to make things even more irrational! I never thought something this overwrought and seemingly impenetrable was even possible let alone theoretically conceivable! This should be a complete indictment of this whole entire postmodernist trend and is ultimately an expression of this trend at its very worst.
