A flawed but interesting book.
I especially liked the section on the history between Beard vs Popper and Strauss. And how that paved the way for the neocons and neolibs who avlued the state above all. ANd once in power, they did their best to discredit any kind of Beardian critical historiography.
It helped explain why both those groups have spend a real effort on discrediting any kind of critical movements.
