Took me way to long to finish it. I enjoyed the first half of the book, but then found myself starting and finishing as I never gravitated to finish this. Happy I did though! It was a very informative and interesting read. Definitely wish I has read it back when I was writing my dissertation, it would be really good as a reference!
