I think a lot of people remember the first half of this early 90s classic (you know, with the steamy pottery scene and the short-haired Demi Moore & etc) a lot more than the ghosty shenanigans of the second half, but Whoopi is hilarious as always and I really liked the ghosty shenanigans.
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.
