but...the way its written makes some chapters (e.x. the one about Edison and Tesla) very hard to get through because you can't tell whether it was written with actual bias or if that was just the tone, something i found incredibly frustrating.
he used outdated and racist terms about indigenous people to "stay true to the time" the stories were in, which i felt was unnecessary.
also the chapter that talked about sex and gender did not mention nonbinary people and used he/she instead of they, so while it handled it okay overall, it was lacking for a book that came out so recently.
there was also a use of "schizoid" and "OCD" as adjectives to call something "crazy", etc. which is was incredibly disappointing and ableist.
overall, i don't think i would reccomend it to anyone, but i didn't have a completely bad time reading it.

While there are many content warnings, I would mention they are stated in more of a detached academic fashion. While there are horrible portions, it is not always written like a story, so readers detachment from some of these acts make this book less "graphic". This certainly is not to say that these warnings aren't still there!
