2.0

i have liked the book till 4th chapter where author have explored our hopeless existence in the face of soul sucking industrialization. But after that, Author gravitate towards socialism and communism backed solution to address the problem. It felts like theories of author are totally personal view, They are neither backed by realities of world nor by proven facts.

Author intention is good, But realities are more complex than what author assume it to be. Maybe author solution and intention looks practical, When an individual in society become god/goddesses.
