Short, but perhaps too long, some interesting ideas

I suppose I agree with the arguments the author makes, however, it seems like a lot of time is spent arguing against ideas that are so easy to argue against, it shouldn't take so much time, as brief as the book is. It's sad humanity still makes intellectual arguments about how certain people are evil by virtue of what they were born into. You'd think by now we could have gotten past all this but we seem to be sinking deeper into it these days. Beyond all intellectualization of the subject, we are left with greedy and aggressive people that want to make everyone else do crazy stuff, though perhaps that's all of us, it's just most of us aren't given the opportunity to behave this way. Some of the ideas of Jewish justice were new to me and I found them interesting as a way of viewing the path forward. All in all, the book made me sad.

On a technical side, I found the audio recording of the book distorted and shrill. For this and a variety of other reasons, I would recommend reading the book rather than listening to it. I imagine it's a better read than a listen. The only reason I listened to it was because I got a special with audible so I could get it for a buck rather than paying 35 bucks for the hardcover.
