The book truly meets the author’s “definition” of a predominantly bullshit work. But perhaps not! The “definition” rests on the subjective discretion of the task-doer so meeting the criteria would require a level of intellectual integrity and self -awareness largely absent from the text. In the eyes of this objective, even well-disposed, reader (at least initially) the book is based on a good idea/polemic ruined by lazy argument, and poor editing. The material relevant to the topic could be condensed to about ten percent (under thirty pages) the rest is irritating over-embellishment, repetition and saccharine virtue-signalling on gender and class issues.
Dreadful waste of ink and time.
