I had high hopes but it is a cumbersome read. Also, completed just before COVID broke out, it's mis-timed as so much has changed since March 2020 that our world has turned upside down. For a much better read on a similar topic, try Fantasyland by Kurt Andersen. I could go no further with this book despite high interest A short second attempt ran afoul of the plodding style - not evident in his articles.
