Save yourself from the horror - get a book on critical thinking skills.  This book is the equivalent to a self-help book or a quickie weight-loss book - they just don't work.  Little in this book draws from reality.  But hey - go ahead and try it out in the boardroom - you can always find a new job.

Feynman was a genius, a polymath.  He comes cl;ose to making these "easy" subjects understandable to the ordinary person who is not a genius.  The charts in the Kindle edition are small and hard to read which is unavoidable considering the size of the Kindle screen.  I will try it on my Kindle Fire.  On the Fire a small part of the screen can be enlarged.

Far too difficult read for average person.  Our book club exited it.  Might be ok if you had some background in this or a real desire to learn about communism in China but for an average person looking just to gain some insight it is too much.

Obtuse. The author writes in a style so verbosely obtuse that the poor reader must read each paragraph 10X or more to garner even the slightest grain of meaning. Deciphering the hidden meaning embedded in an entire page would require {in my humble opinion) years of dedicated study from the most erudite of minds---a task too arduous for my feeble brain.

I have aged 30 years in the short span of a single week, trudging thru this impenetrable tome. Needless to say, I am not enamored with this book.

Sounds great, but the instructions were obviously written by someone that does not have a great grasp of English, so it takes a little playing around with to figure it out.

The most average book I have ever seen. I don't know what I really expected as the MCSE is not a qualification for DUMMIES. Maybe apart from the rrors this book will make you pass the test but don't think that will  help you get job because it has virtually nothing that would be helpful in  the real world. Avoid this one like the plague.

I enjoyed reading, and it really showed how VERY unintelligent people are.  Am glad they were 'found out'.

Was in a study of this book and it was well written and pointed out things I had not thought of or realized. It was written where the average person could understand, would suggest to people to read it.

I beleive that this book is an average book.  Many people really would enjoy this book if they like hearing about other peoples problems.

Is not all that I had anticipated from this over-rated expositor.

Provides so-so knowledge that will probably benefit the absolute novice more than anyone else. The information mostly revolves around a lack of initial knowledge by the author. It would seem that anyone could buy a crummy boat and then write a book like this as they muddle through the restoration process, and that no particularly profound knowledge is conveyed.

A mere ninety-four pages in length and I haven't seen typeface that large since Dick and Jane saw Spot run. So-called educated people will see this book as worthy. Intelligent people, on the other hand, will see the true value of this book, a beacon to identify the thoughtless and the dull.

I've taught undergraduates and graduate students science at a major private university for almost 30 years. During this time,  I've seen an increasingly profound inability of my students (about 10,000 so far) to even process the most simple scientific facts  beyond  memorizing them.

American citizens, if their kids are any indication, view knowledge in the context of "Who Wants to be A Millionaire", a stream of factoids, unrelated, much like a list of names in a telephone book.

"Unscientific America"  tell the reader why this sorry state of affairs has occurred. I suspect, the same or worse applies for the average American citizen knowing about our Nation's history, basic elements of world culture, or the arts.  My foreign students look at Americans with bewilderment and wonder on how they could be so ignorant living in such privilege and plenty.

And then, they happily out-compete them.

Not much here of use to anyone but a complete novice.

A well thought out book- should be mandatory reading for every adult, but of course the vast majority  of people in the USA just don't have a clue.
