    The chapter on customary law is definitely the weakest thus far analysis and enjoyment wise.

    Usually nonfiction relies on going into weird larger than life metaphysical ideas to analyse things in an interesting and humorous way but what I love about this is that it was greatly enjoyable while also retaining academic rigour. The analysis was precise and cogent, the writing was amazing in its fluidity and imagery, and the political historical and legal information the analysis relied upon was well researched and very useful. One of the best reads I have had recently.
