Plink, you should go over to Amazon and put in a review. There's like 150 reviews over there and none of them are less than 3 stars. Seriously. If you have a detailed criticism, it could help others not waste their time with the book. I find many computer books tedious. Computer literature, for some reason, has a much greater variation in styles than other forms of literature. Some books are basically just big lists, and folks love 'em. I read the book early in my career, so maybe your point about timing is a good one. Don't know. I do know that unless you're just being snarky, having an alternate point of view can be very useful for folks choosing what to spend their time on. I really regretted not being able to ding this book more. It'd be good to see a more detailed negative review. And GEB is on my short list :) I still have a dog-eared copy from 1995 or something.
