This is easily one of the most fascinating books I’ve ever read. It took me a long time to get through it because I couldn’t stand to give it anything less than my full attention. No matter your background, this book will teach you 1) something you’re surprised you didn’t know 2) something you’d rather you now not know 3) something you thought you already understood but only really knew what you’d heard from others. If you’ve ever wondered what in the world is a neoliberal or neoconservative, and you have the spoons, then this is the book for you.
