I enjoyed this a little less than other books like it (e.g. 1984, Brave New World) as the messaging was a bit heavy handed and boomery.

I read the first two thirds of this book less than ten years ago but I, for whatever reason, never finished it. Reading it now makes me regret never finishing it back then. This book is a great read, a fascinating perspective which I am sure can be applied to our current world.
