The Bill Gates Problem: Reckoning with the Myth of… door Tim Schwab
Full on demolition job on Bill Gates. And on the Gates Foundation. Yet the further I delved into the phenomenal mass of information Schwab has packed into this tome, the more I began wondering. Is Bill Gates the problem? Perhaps the problem really is an economic system that allows people like Bill to acquire such absurd wealth and the unreasonable power that accompanies it. To this author’s credit, he summarises his concerns with exactly this view—on page 350.
This book by Tim Schwab is excellent. I used to admire Bill Gates greatly but lost my enthusiasm for the man during the COVID-19 pandemic. I also felt he spoke like an authority on subjects he had no training for; when I read the book, I brought my prejudice to my reading of the book.
However, Tim Schwab has done considerable research on the subject, and it appears Bill Gates is tough to crack.
He speaks a lot and uses this to hide the secrets he holds dear.
The research is meticulous. I like how Tim Schwab divided the book into distinct chapters, each dealing with its topic. Without this organization, the book would have been a mess.
The style is engaging, and while he has no sympathy for Bill Gates, he has done his best to be objective.
His suggestions in the last chapter are bold. I doubt the powers that be will accept them!
Beware of Bill Gates: this is the lesson of the book.… (meer)
