it is definitely in the top 10 percentileWhat did you like best about this story?
very well written and well narrated. I disagree that that there is too much detail as others have said. I think it is very well written and gives quite a lot of depth of understanding and information as wellWhat about Simon Vance’s performance did you like?
very good. I enjoyed his narration and definitely will like him to narrate more audio books that I might be interested in.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
it is a book that would want to come back to again and again to get more information and ideas "downloaded" on this very important century .Any additional comments?

Hardly. Instead I found it distractingly choppy and disorganized. It was impossible to learn much from this as a cohesive thought or point is rarely completed before another 'quote' from yet another individual is interjected. I have decided it is not worth my time to finish it.
Disappointing
