4.0 out of 5 stars review of nine chains, April 21, 2002
By 
This was Bucky's first book. The reader will find it clever and imaginative, though rough going due to the technical and philosophical format. The sentences are lengthy and I suggest keeping a dictionary along side.

This work is an eye opener which makes up for its difficulty. If you're looking for a new and convincing perspective of the real forces behind history and evolution, this book is for you.

The main theme is scientific housing and its potential importance in solving many socioeconomic ills as opposed to relying on status quo politics and the legal-financial, money making system.

This book, written during The Great Depression, is STILL way ahead its time and well worth the reader's effort.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, March 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Incredibly relevant for today considering it was written in the 1930's.

Be forewarned, though. It's a tough read.
