    Pinker makes a strong case. A bit dense in places, but ultimately rewarding. New afterword added value.

  16. Shreya Garg

    A complex and dense book. It required my full attention, making it harder to enjoy.

    The ideas are complex, and it assumes prior knowledge. A worthwhile challenge, though.

    Pinker’s arguments are thought-provoking, but I felt overwhelmed by the scientific jargon. Still a worthwhile read.
