I've recommended his book a lot but I also find the writing itself to be poor. He's very much trying to write like its some (specifically Taoist) mystic text but it comes off as quite cheesy.
- davidivadavid 4y agoI don't disagree that this was a risky bet, and yet now I can't imagine the book being written any other way.

Perkins still said "we mean to publish this" and brought it down to a manageable length. Alexander just needs some tough love.
