I had already mentioned in the "OLM ethics" thread.

Indeed, this was one of the comments I had in mind when I said that the discussion was "buried in a recent thread."

the #1 review on Amazon is pretty convincing in saying that the book is lopsided in favor of WoC.

I don't find this to be a dealbreaker myself. For a popular book on a controversial topic, I like it when the author argues the case strongly and even overstates it.
