I read it long ago and came to the conclusion that he was essentially right with how he framed the problem but the solution he picked out of the two alternatives was the wrong one. Running away from technological progress into the wilderness somewhere might be good for you but the only long term solution that is good for everyone is to alter humanity to be better adapted to its new environment. Though there are probably a multitude of ways of doing it, the two that stick out as most likely / agreeable to all are Gattaca and AI + Cyborg. Though I could also see strong AI either just replacing humanity[0] or simulating / uploading the minds of the good humans and merging with them. [0] I'm not convinced that this would be a bad thing, a hypothetical AI that comes with all of the benefits of humanity with none of the rape or war might just be better ethically in a global sense.
