"'Like Orwell, Koestler, Marshall McLuhan, Primo Levi and Tim Flannery, [Saul] tells us unsparingly how tremendously we got things wrong, how much magic the Age of Reason cost us... [Saul is] the most wide-ranging mind, and one of the great organising and focusing teachers, we have.' Bob Ellis, Sydney Morning Herald"
