The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity by Douglas Murray

3.0

---

Appropriate subject at this day and age. I found he made strong compelling points I agreed with (particularly when he discusses group think and cancel culture), but also raised some points I disagreed with entirely (the appeal of “one culture” and color-blindness). At times, I felt to make a point, examples were shoehorned in. There are points where his writing veered towards a tone and I found this particularly inconsistent. The three stars are not for my agreement or disagreement with his points, but rather that I didn’t find a conclusive wrap up to what seemed like a myriad of topics only loosely related.
