Shame he attracts such a following of 
s.
It's not his followers that are ts.ts in my understanding, it's the extreme lefties who can't comprehend someone having a different opinion (based on facts) and refer to him (wrongly) as a right wing nazi. Such is the way today unfortunately.As for this book, I didn't really get on with it, I think it's aimed at young adults starting out in life, the importance of discipline etc. All good stuff and it's genuinely helped some people with their struggles. I've seen him talk about being approached by young men who were close to the brink of suicide and felt saved by him. His response seemed very genuine and touching. He's not without his own weaknesses either and he has struggled himself with mental health of late, which I think has been down to a culmination of the weight of pressure he puts upon himself and the constant misguided attacks from the left.
I do enjoy listening to him speak though. He's an intelligent man with vast knowledge on his chosen subject matter, if you want to challenge him, make sure you go in well prepared, unlike Cathy Newman.
