TLDR: I wouldn't bother
Wouldn't bother to write a review at all had this book been only disappointing. But no, it wasn't just disappointing, it was fucking enraging. The sexism & chauvinism of this book is overwhelming. The general opinion on the web is that this book is a product of its time, the sexist 60s. Even if you manage to block out the fundamental sexism of the book, you start to realise how all of it was probably meant to thrill the minds of the time with ideas that were ‘radical'. Its ideas of the future, aliens etc start off feeling merely dated & quickly become downright annoying. Such sensationalist drivel. Nothing profound here. This one's not lasting the test of time.
