Overall assessment of the first 200 pages

[Cathy Haukedahl]

Are other people overwhelmed by this book? I am! There’s so much information — I think too much. I think Friedman’s theories and ideas are very interesting and even somewhat encouraging because he believes we have the ability to innovate our way out of the environmental mess we’re in. I just think his ideas get a bit buried in data and quotations. I wish he’d publish a shorter version! 🙂

I am so with you, Cathy! I actually really struggled with this book. From almost page 1, I was super overwhelmed with the amount of data that he was using to support his arguments. I actually don’t think I will continue on to the second half – it’s just too much to read through and process. I may try to find some Cliff Notes 🙂

If it is a very dense book, but in the end it already focuses more on the solutions. I’m glad I read because it treats the topic thoroughly. Sometimes these issues are treated too superficially.
