I read about a quarter of it and regret the time I wasted.
It's interesting to look at the Amazon reviews: most of the reviews give 5 stars, but if you look at the 1-star reviews you'll see that there is a significant minority of reviewers with opinions like this one, for example: "It's an overrated book that is unnecessarily long. It will suffice to read the book blurb as the rest is repetitive explanation of the same topic with endless examples."
To me it is an interesting psychological phenomenon that people find the book worth reading. Perhaps someone should write a book about that ...

This is why I am asking (also because I believe most of the people here know what this book is about and many of them have actually read it).
