Strange Days Indeed: The 1970s: The Golden Days of Paranoia by Francis Wheen

4.0

A fascinating look at a decade I suddenly realised I knew next to nothing about. At times I found it a little rambling and hard to follow, but overall I really enjoyed it, and found it very engaging and memorable.

I would have liked more of a focus on non-Western countries (although the chapters about the UK and America were also very interesting), and in particular a broader perspective on African politics.

Overall, this was really interesting, and definitely worth reading.
