Review

Rating: 8

Inflammatory title notwithstanding this book is a must read for anyone looking to influence broad change. Yes the examples can be controversial, but they really highlight what’s happened in, I would argue, not just America but in Canada as well. It was particularly interesting to read the latter chapters while the US presidential nomination debates were underway.
