The book talks a lot about the barefoot revolution but was not the one to start it. Probably gave it a boost though. The book mentions the five fingers

However I got a sound argument from one of my colleagues the other day stating that a lot of the barefoot runners run on softer grounds. Since a lot of us run more or less on hard concrete and asphalt, shoes might be preferable.
