The book is a huge waste of time, AND SPACE on mybookshelf.I agree with you on each of those points. I'm actually starting to wonder why I'm still reading it and if there's any point finishing it. ^^;
The guy makes huge claims he doesnt back up, his logic is retarded and a lot of his opinions are biased. If I remember correctly at one point he says people are getting dumber and dumber? The guys a jackass and on top of it all the book isnt even well written.
Having spent money on it I'm loth to just discard it, but perhaps that's an instinct I should ignore this time.
The one thing I do like about it is the abundance of factual information, but really the same is available in history books.
