Live working die fighting: Paul Mason

Out of curiousity what were peoples opinions of this book? Think its been discussed before on here, just wondered if any else had read it.

Me personally i thought it was a good read as a book but that it had several flaws. His take on the commune was well written and quite interesting, it was quite refreshing to read someone happy to dismiss the first international as a bunch of bickering trade union bureaucrats, even if i think thats an over exaggeration.
The central theme of the book, comparing struggles from the past and present comes across as third worldist, even if it is not intended in such a fashion, and aside from a few chapters this format never really seems to work. Towards the latter half of the book the quality became a bit too hit and miss aswell and the 'broad left'' politics for want of a better word became more simplistic and less easy to ignore,
