Query: As a teacher I am vastly disappointed

After seeing the rave reviews, I was planning on using this book in one of my courses. So I went out and bought a copy.The book performs a disservice to the field of mathematics, and it should be removed from the shelves. It takes beautiful concepts, layers them under long, convoluted sentences which obscure the majesty of the subject, and then poses as a scholarly work via the use of ludicrous, insincere footnotes. As I waded through the muck, I kept asking myself, "has culture really declined this far that people have no conscience?" I'm trying to teach my students the beauty of truth, and here an author, his editors, and the publisher are working against me. I might be outnumbered, but this book will not be used in my classroom.Who are the people writing the rave reviews? Do they have a financial stake in how well this book does? They must, as the only reason to try and sell this book would be money.
