"Q: Do you worry that you extrapolate too much from too little? "A: No. It's better to err on the side of over-extrapolation ..." That's all you need to know about his writing. Over-extrapolator of "trends" from some isolated fragments of information about fields he knows nothing about. Read his book as entertainment... sure. Somewhat like how you'd guffaw at an acerbic observation by a standup comedian without trying to read too much into the scientific validity of said observations. Or how you'd treat the claims of "4 out of 5 dentists recommend our floss" type claims. That's about the right level of credibility for his output.
