hit or miss - I want to say I loved it, because I did, but it was also slow to get going and full of science-holes, both of which are really unforced errors if you ask me.
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.
