A remarkebly cogent, clear picture of what nazi Germany was really like at the top of the command chain, really made it clear how much of a buffoon hitler was, definitely a long book sort of overburdened by endless descriptions of political in-fighting, worth reading for a unique perspective on this important history.
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.
