[C Miller · Rating 3 out of 5]

Hard to rate an encyclopedic, reference type book as "really liked it" or higher but that's not to say it's not interesting. I read this book, or parts thereof, in several sessions several years ago. It's not a book to read from cover to cover but I pull it off the shelf from time to time. I give it 3 stars because it the subject matter itself is interesting to me. Anyone interested in a easy-to-read reference on "radical thought" will appreciate it. Keep it on the coffee table to encourage potentially awkward icebreakers at your next cocktail party.
