Geography of Nowhere

I was very eager to read this book, but I found it very boring at the beginnig, too many historical facts are exposed - incidentally pertaining purely to history of USA - but the facts hardly support any concept. One finds himself wading through pages and pages of history, without any new idea being brought to the attention. Probably the background of the author is not in science. After you get over the first 100 pages, the book becomes more original and thought-provoking, although honestly I would have expected the elaboration of the foundation of a new science, the science of Unurbanism.
