Add me to the "pro" side. Sure, a lot of it is pretty speculative, but
good speculations can be pretty compelling when it's clear that the
"common knowledge" alternatives are hopelessly flawed. And even if you
hate the book completely, the photos alone are worth the price--they
make a great photo essay on what "diversity" really means.
