I just finished Heath's book and found it to be extremely fascinating and well thought out. The problem is, I can't imagine many people who wouldn't find the title a little intimidating. I am an economics PHD student at UC Irvine, with special interests in critical theory, so I found it useful. The book is esentially an argument against instrumental rationality, especially that used by game theorists, using Habermas' theory of communicative action. If you don't know what all of those words mean in that last sentence but want to learn, then this book is great. If you do know what all of those words mean, you should definitely get this book.
