It was okay. A few interesting ideas and thoughts, but nothing that's life changing for me. Most of it is pure logic.
I'm a bit ambivalent about this book. On one side there are quite a lot of over simplifications and shortcuts, but on the other it teaches quite a lot of things about humanity and the way we built out societies and force us to think deeply about our lives and place in the world. A lot of things said by Ishmael ring a bell and sound quite true, enough to force you to think and reflect about ourselves.
