excellent read but lacks depth
I enjoyed reading this book, which is full of urgent arguments about the human race's past and future, making it clear that there is something deeply wrong with the world as it presently is, and that dramatic change is required if we are to...

Recommend for quick read that you can really get into
This book has a totally different approach to any other kind of cultural history book.

I want to send a copy of this book to everyone I know.
Finally, somebody said it, and said it all. The smart concept that was clearly the catalyst for this work is magnificently presented and written for the "common man" - readers are able to grasp the history, concepts, and lessons regardless of...

Without Gorilla what happens to Dan.
This novel was recommended to me by a friend and I thought it would be a good read. Unfortunately it is not. The story is silly and one sided and really cheesy, a telepathic gorilla? The author uses the bible as a historical document to prove...

a simple minded gimmick
I started this book with much intrigue, then got bored, and then grew to really dislike it. I'm all for the core message of this book, that we have to save ourselve and the planet, and that our culture and our unquestioned assumptions are...

Read it more than once and don't stop at Ishmael
1. Let's not pretend that this book is a great intellectual work of fiction as it's not. It's not even written that well, and I think that if Quinn were to re-write it, he would make changes for the better. However; read it anyway and look beyond...

Thought provoking
A thought-provoking read. Actually, I'm not sure that's accurate. I think it's more of a perspective-shifting read.
