I haven't finished 'Long',so I'll refrain from comment on that until I've made it through.Like so many titles,by the time Kuntsler does the research,does the manuscript, editing,proofing,and publishing,the information is already obsolete.A lot has happened since it's publishing.
I did watch Hagen's 'Blindspot' lecture in it's entirety.I came away feeling like there's some things Nate doesn't know he doesn't know,and things he shares are contextual,without expressing so.Which leaves the audience at a disadvantage.
I'm also auditing the Great Courses', by Columbia University, DVD lecture series' Physics of History,and have found at least one,what I believe to be,a climate change comment mistake by Dr.Helfand.
