I think the premise of this book is profoundly interesting and possibly even liberating. I had heard him interviewed on "The Dig" podcast before reading this book and found his politics and ideas much more intriguing there than I did in this book. In particular, I found some of the philosophical strains he expounded upon unappealing - from esoteric takes on postmodernism to Rabbi Kook and his lineage. Nevertheless, it's an important read for people who want to understand various strains and histories of Zionism in thought and practice.
