A timely and interesting read, a handbook for defending against tyranny. The only problem is that it's far too short.

Worth reading/listening to a few times. It's short (2 hr audiobook) but it's important.

Really interesting, quick read. Some of the points he mentions are ideas that I rarely ponder, so it was rather insightful and informative. I think his points are very fundamental to being an aware citizen.

I feel like this is a pretty good introduction to thinking more about one’s own participation in democracy and I can definitely see myself recommending and gifting this to my friends and family. Some of the content is easier to understand if you know a lot about 21st Century European history and have a decent grasp of terms used to discuss politics.
