Really informative and enjoyable book. Took me a little longer to get into but in the end, a good book!

This is a very good academic study of how to make a better world and how to debate it with others.

I really enjoyed this but I believe that this is a book best read by some who have a decent broad range of knowledge of theories to begin with
I think those who don't have too much of a theoretical knowledge to begin with may find this difficult.

This was a really in-depth look into the societal issues which cause the most discord and debate in the current political climate. I found it really interesting and educational, but I'm not sure it gave me much help in shaping my arguments to better make my point in disagreements, so I'm taking a star off for that. Would say that this is only to pick up only if you are in a good mood however as some of the points made are incredibly depressing!

New year, new you? I took my time reading this book and did not regret it. It’s definitely a book filled with knowledge and purpose. The book and content are bite-sized but this is a book that you can re-read and come back to over and over again depending on the situation you are facing in life.

The E-Book could be improved and more user-friendly, such as links to the chapters, no significant gaps between words and a cover for the book would be better. It is very document-like instead of a book. A star has been deducted because of this.

This is a first for me by the author and one I enjoyed and I would read more of their work. The book cover is eye-catching and appealing and would spark my interest if in a bookshop. Thank you very much to the author, publisher and Netgalley for this ARC.

This book is chock-full of important and compelling information that everybody should know about discrimination and oppression.

It’s interesting and informative without being patronising.

Arianne Shahvisi gives voice to some of the questions that people feel afraid to voice or challenge such as ‘can you be racist towards a white person’.

At times this is an uncomfortable and challenging read, particularly for me as a White, middle classes and pretty privileged person but that just shows how crucial it is that people should read this book and how important the information contained within it is.

Everyone should read this book

Thank you to the author and Netgalley for the advanced readers copy of Arguing for a Better World.

This was a very interesting read and I enjoyed the way the author always “showed their working”, which gives further depth and understanding for the points being made.

I enjoyed this book overall as a thought provoking piece but it does feel very academic and the principles and arguments made, whilst sound, would be difficult to replicate in a real life situation. I dropped a star for this reason but enjoyed the book.
