This book was a completely different experience than what I imagined at the beginning of the book.
The movie is only loosely based on this book and doesn't approach the messages and opinions of Rober A. Heinlein.
Being the second book I read from Mr. Heinlein I can say he was a very opinionated person, nothing compared with Orson Scott Card and some ideas might prove to be effective if given the chance.
Loved the duality between authority and responsibility to the point when clearely explained why a functional milistaristic and meritocratic regime could work at least in fiction.
A recommended reading for anyone who has finished with Asimov and/or want some perspective on military training fiction.
