This review fascinated me; especially the themes around narrative control, neutrality, and how people shape ‘truth’ depending on perspective. You’ve made me curious about the book now.
Fascinating review. I'll think about it whenever I refer to Wikipedia. Do you think the Enclopedia of by gone eras faced these issues.

If you read it I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I think it's good to be reminded of what's behind Wikipedia. I believe many people use information from it with no thought given to where it came from.

Writing for the old legacy encyclopedias was not open to the public so it seems to me that there would have been less controversy. If there was disagreement on a particular subject it would have been confined to their own staff and the "experts" with whom they contracted to write the articles.
Clif, i’m not sure how to reach you other than this way. Thank you for reviewing at least one of my books. I’m about to publish my fifth and last. I am palliative but feeling reasonably well so far. Have been so glad to have you as my friend on Goodreads.

Thanks for the note. Best wishes as you finish your journey. Thank you for being my Goodreads friend. I'll keep an eye out for your fifth book.
Thank you very much for your thorough review, Clif. I would love to send you a review copy of my next book, The Power of Print. It’s a nonfiction book about why print media still matters in our increasingly digital world. Anticipated release Fall 2027 from St. Martin’s Press.
