reviewed Interacting with Geospatial Technologies on April 15, 2017
Interacting with Geospatial Technologies
Rand has some solid critiques of post-modernism and the far-left, and her ideas are highly relevant, especially in today's climate.
However, I found her style very dramatic and unbalanced. She's quite comfortable attributing the most malice of intents to differing ideological groups, leaving no room for other interpretations.
Her final chapter on global warming was especially troublesome (Trump style proclamations), and doesn't reflect well on her given the scientific consensus today.
