it was ok
bookshelves: 2007, cultural-studies

Abysmal, condescending, illogical and mean-spirited book on social economics. Absolutely no sources named for "statistics". The author seems to think that a significant number of people go to the movies solely to eat popcorn and that the benefits of recycling are outweighed by the fact that he doesn't feel like doing it.

Lynn I totally agree. I really did note enjoy reading this book. While there are interesting povs, I found the tone of the book just depressing.

Abhinav The author seems to think that a significant number of people go to the movies solely to eat popcorn
Pardon me but I don't see where the author has made a claim even resembling that
