fascinating stuff, though you only spend brief respites on each civilisation/period/person that I wish were expanded upon. Drawing juxtaposition and highlighting the similarities between their collapse and our current society’s trajectory was as unnerving as it was interesting.
The biggest problem with the book however is that can be a slog to get through which is reflected in my rating.
