EPL Talk: "How Soccer Explains The World" Book Review

    That sums up my assessment of the book exactly. Excellent job.

    Agree with tyduffy. I read the book about six months ago and from what I remember it includes a lot of impressive anecdotal evidence but not much else. Ignore the larger premise of the book and enjoy the local histories, customs and stories. A must read for football fans if not students of globalization.

    Complete and utter waste of what little time I spent skimming it and all of the money that my wife spent buying it. Nice of her to think of me, though.

    Ditto to tyduffy and ossie, read the book on holiday in spain two years ago. Loved it and it's great stories, yet was left completely perplexed with it's failed attempts at grander meaning.


    Good review.
