Robert B. Edgerton Editorial Review
**** "Sick Societies: A Challenge to the Legend of Primitive Order" presents a thought-provoking exploration of societal structures and primal orders. The content is recognized for its educational and enlightening qualities, offering readers a chance to delve deep into topics that challenge conventional beliefs. However, the reception of the book has been mixed primarily due to its translation quality; some readers have expressed that the intricate ideas are often lost in convoluted sentence structures. This has led to frustration for those seeking a clearer understanding of the material. Despite its somewhat dense language, many reviewers note that the central themes of the book remain Consistent and impactful, making it worth the read for those willing to engage with its complexities. Overall, while the book could greatly benefit from a more polished translation, it still stands as a significant contribution to discussions about societal norms and mores. **
