5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating
The complications of the traditional subject/object distinction that this book creates, while still remaining a fairly easy-to-read text is impressive. It's unconventional structure I found helpful, actually.

3.0 out of 5 stars ok
This book has some interesting ideas but a tone that verges on patronising - the author seems to enjoy toying with the reader in a way that is slightly irritating after a while. The thesis around ontological multiplicity is suggestive, but not thoroughly enough developed or linked explicitly enough to ideas or scholars to which it is indebted. I was a bit disappointed.
