It's been several years since I read this slim volume (for a second time), but it's one of those which I find myself looking for in bibliographies in order to rate an author's expertise and depth of research. Surprisingly, and disappointingly, it seems to have been all but forgotten. This is a shame because it's quite a fine book and well worth the attention of anyone interested in these difficult topics.I remember it as being almost in the form of an extended, musing essay, full of interesting surprises and insights -- the kind of book which makes you think about things differently than you did before without really being able to put words to it. Whenever I think of the book, I wonder why apparently nothing more was ever written by the author.
