Re: postone

A friend of mine has been bugging me to read Postone for years.  He claims
this is the ultimate book to read.  Finally, when it came out in paperback,
I bought it and still haven't read it.  I'd love to see a discussion.  Since
I don't participate in the lists I used to, I'm curious as to what list was
it in which said flame war occurred?  Why would anyone flame over Postone?
