I think if you like hard boiled police procedural thrillers full of white dudes you’ll like this one, but it falls short of greatness due to its inconsistent, meandering pace.
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.
