I found this to be a very worthwhile book to read because it really makes the reader think and question socioeconomic trends and norms that we often take for granted. Other reviewers have done a really strong job in critiquing the book's shortcomings - among them a lack of practical actions that the author recommends, an editorial sense of disorganization about the book, etc, but in spite of these legitimate shortcomings, I found this book to be an important, very important, social critique that really ought to be widely read by any thinking citizen who cares about the world we are inhabiting and cultivating. Next, however, there needs to be more dialogue about solutions.
