I enjoyed some essays more than others, naturally. There were some that I was personally interested in and others I didn’t really care about. As with all essay collections written by multiple authors, some were better written than others. I felt like the book itself was cohesive, the essays worked well together and it made sense why certain myths were chosen. I liked the structure of “here’s a myth, here’s the truth, and here’s my evidence to back it up”. 

But. I'm not really sure who this book is for. I don't think it's far-left enough that it's alienating to more moderate thinkers, but I don't think moderate or right-leaning thinkers would be inclined to pick this up, nor would it really change their minds. On the other hand, I don't think left-leaning people who have read books in similar topics will really gain a lot of, if any, new information. It’s a nice primer and it’s a cool idea to have all of the related essays collected in one place. I guess you could read this before Thanksgiving to brush up on your debate points.
