really liked it

Engaging. Rewarding. But the adjective I'd use above all else - stimulating. Will be putting up a detailed thought-note on the blog, as and when possible. It's not a very long book - on a good day, would've taken an hour or so.

The single most profound essay that I've read so far is Vaclav Havel's "Power of the Powerless". This book is definitely not an equivalent, but would be in the same league - at least if it were not for the apologetic note that is struck in the concluding notes.

On a light note, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Julian Assange and Noam Chomsky were BFFs - at least, as far their views about the US State Department went!
