The Grandmaster and Today

What can I say Heinlein is he grand master. This small novella and couple of stories are interesting but the best read is the letter from the author. Right now in our present time we are having the same issues with anti-intellectualism, anti-science, anti-pluralism, etc. As our current situation could be the backdrop to how the events in this book fall into place.

The biggest difference is the role of big corporations have on big government. That is not as evident in this book as it is in our time. A bit dated in language but this was published in the 1950s so that I should be expected.

Just a fun read.
