4.0 out of 5 stars My 100-word book review, Nov 13 2007

By	A. J. Cull (London, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How To Be Free (Hardcover)

How to be Free is highly entertaining nonsense, with several grains of truth buried among the contradictions. Like a four-year-old who thinks it would be great to eat nothing but ice cream, the author appears gloriously unaware of the likely consequences should everyone live in the way he proposes. I agree about the value of questioning the power of governments and corporations, yet his ideal society would surely be a descent into miserable and chaotic (albeit colourful!) squalor. One marvellous thing about this book, ironically, is that it has made me more appreciative of our modern world and its benefits.
