Well, this guy is certainly no David Brin.
About the only original idea in that book would be the "uniplanetary evolution" thingy, which is mostly just a patching together of previously existing UFO/NewAge/Conspiracy lunacy. Also, it kinda pisses me off how he arrogantly asserts his idea as a "theory" when it's barely a hypothesis.
On the bright side, seeing as how even a third-rate book like this can get published gives me hope that someday I'll see my own work get printed.
