Philip of Macedon asked this question about Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everybody:
So, who's actually read it? It's interesting that this book is still more than a month from release, but there are already a dozen ratings for it and zero reviews. I'm confident it'll be a good book, because Helen and James do fantastic work. But this seems to provide more evidence of the disappointing recurring theme I see on Goodreads, which is that a lot of people rate or review books they haven't even read.
Jennifer Maloney Publishers send out arcs (advanced reader copies) ahead of time for people to review. That’s likely what’s happening.
