As a book it is too long, poorly edited, and rambling.

As an argument it is incoherent and all over the place - the nuggets are buried amongst either small deserts or fragrant mistakes. Flagrant ones too.

As an exercise in trying to do theology or intellectual pursuit it is infuriating. Boot is remarkably uncharitable to fellow believers, and is willing to condemn some for the same sort of ‘mistake’ he dedicates an appendix to attempting to clear his hero of.

A very disappointing book, which I intend to review at length. If I can find the motivation.
