الإطلاع على سردية للأسباب والأطراف الكامنة وراء تحول القاهرة إلى بؤرة من جهنم وسكانها إلى جحافل من الفئران المذعورة لم يجلب أي نوع من السلام المعرفي ولكن المزيد من غليان الدم.

دراسات مخلصة ومعروضة بشكل رائع لكنها تفتقر إلى تحليلات دقيقة أو دراسات كمية، وذلك للفقر المعتاد للبيانات المقاسة عن الواقع المصري. تبقي الدراسة مؤشر عن أسباب متعددة ومحسوسة للواقع الذي نعيشه، ولا تتطرق لاقتراحات أو حلول.
