very well sourced, though the reading experience is marred once every couple pages by run on sentences with multiple footnotes making my eyes jump around too much. although I wouldn't have bothered with endnotes at all so i suppose it could've been worse.

there's a freudian, though not quite, slip right before the introduction which I don't believe this book will be able to surpass
