There were some amusing lines for sure but I found some of the jargon hard going & overly cynical which I know is the point. Clearly an evolutionist author with no scope for any other world views which I think is rather narrow minded . Found the graphs /statistic bullsh*t interesting .
In the end it became a toilet time reading book . Was the only way to plough through it . Funny that

This is a book one should borrow from the library. At first entertaining but quickly became a bore. The chapter on Political Bullshit is just that. Think we are all aware that Politicians spue self serving rhetoric. Little book but very cumbersome to read.
