I would not appeal to academics having an opinion on specific books as unbiased and authoritative. They can be wrong, often have an agenda which they want you to buy into whether that is to "build a reputation", "do a colleague/enemy down, personal or political.
The only real judge can be oneself. So have YOU read it? I have not. It is not my kind of book.
