The first 30 pages are extremely interesting and deal with the work of John B. Calhoun. The remaining 131 pages are a rambling rant against capitalism, religion, and pollution. Many of the theories from the 1970s that this author builds his arguments upon have since been disproven.

A book on Utopia 25? Neat! But there is a caveat, do you enjoy authors who ask the reader questions instead of making points? Or an author who uses a premise on the cover and title, but barely focuses on the subject? If a book that explains things only on broad assumptions, then asks open ended question gets your goat, then this book be for you.

I've learned a lot from this book though, most importantly to be wary of self published books. The author could have used help from an editor to help summarize and clarify points. More improtantly someone should have told them if a chapter ends with you asking the reader a question, you're relying on a cliche writing style that leaves the author sounding as if they are not confident in their own thoughts enough to stand by them.

I wish I just found the journal article this books first section was based on. The remaining aspects of the book was a random collection of thoughts ranging from co-opting days for protesting, spirituality, to politics. It’s a discussion about change, but the author really hasn’t understood how to affect change or understand how to move political will. It’s as he assumes all readers think like him. Sadly this book had a lot of promise.

Very thought provoking research but this book doesn’t seem to offer much in-depth insight.
