Review # 2 was written on 2013-04-11 00:00:00 Seth Whitney Boy, am I glad I read this. I gave it three stars, not because its not crucial or very moving (nearly every page demands I underline and put stars next to brilliant thoughts), but because he tends to meander from brilliant point to brilliant point with a vocabulary heavy in the radical psychological ruminations of the 1960s. This tended to slow me down. Either way, the books make me hopeful for our current situation in the 2020s, and I can see how Ursula K. LeGuin and David Graeber also read his work and expounded on many of his core ideas of consensual society, the means being the ends, and the right of the individual to be the instrument of permanent social revolution.
