Query: I wanted to like this but I was disappointed

I wanted to like this book because I believe in the connections between the dharma and radical politics. Unfortunately the book just wasn't written well enough to really get into these connections. I enjoyed his other book, Against the Stream, much more and do recommend that one for advice about useful socially engaged Buddhist practice. Dharma Punx, however, is sort of just a memoir about a generic, tortured and self-righteous punk rock boy, and most people probably won't relate to it; at least, I didn't. Do read his other book, and do read other relevant texts regarding socially engaged Buddhism, such as Thich Nhat Hahn's work.
