I don’t get why this ad hominem is the highest voted post. Probably you’re right and Varoufakis has a questionable reputation, but that doesn’t automatically mean that his book is of poor quality. Having said that, I don’t think the essay is very strong. The author seems to be using binary thinking and only brings arguments up that are in favor of his main arguments. With some critical thinking, it’s fairly easy to come up with counter arguments during the read.
