The second entry in this series is so challenging and confusing that it sometimes shades into complex sci-fi poetry, and I come away thinking that with a teensy bit more editing and hand holding it would be a better time, but I still enjoyed it greatly.
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.
