I gave up about 100 pages in and I never give up. But I did. I was excited about this book. Some scholars I follow praised it on social media. This is a topic I am profoundly interested in. And yet, I found it unreadable. It may be that I'm getting older and less tolerant of academic gibberish that papers over relatively simple ideas. So, unless all the insightful stuff is the other 200 pages that I did not read, there was really nothing there that I hadn't read somewhere else, except clearer and much better written.
