It's a groundbreaking work but half the time two pages could have been two paragraphs, and two paragraphs should have been two pages. I feel like I would have been satisfied reading the last 15 pages, although the rest of the book is still valuable if only as a historical records of the contemporary ideas this stood against.

Definitely gave me a lot to think about. This is my first time reading the book all the way through, as opposed to reading excerpts. Some parts, such as the third chapter, were much better than others. It's hard to give a pat, succinct review of this. I'll need to reflect more.
