Fully half of this impeccably researched book is footnotes; as a deep dive into the terrible changes wrought by the Koch brothers it's essential reading, altho unless you are into dense political history and analysis you won't get through it.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
