Her style in this one is much easier because it is filled with anecdotes and even though it is incredibly well researched, she just writes with a very readable style. Hard to read, because as others have pointed out wow, it's tough to see the US compared to Nazi Germany and India and see the US caste system in all its brutality. This is even stronger than Warmth IMHO.(less)
