Whew that took me 3 months. The ideas presented seem to have great merit, and the book as a whole has "major implications" (as it states itself). The last quarter wasn't as dense as the beginning, but everything got tied into a coherent whole at the end. The writing style probably isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I mostly enjoyed it. Full review will follow, but I can already say that this is a must read for anyone who wants to understand >>>society<<<.
