Help!

Revolt and Crisis in Greece: Between a Present Yet to Pass and a Future Still to Come - Dimitris Dalakoglou, Antonis Vradis

honest to god, chapter 3 is putting me to sleep. I have not read this in almost a month because of chapter 3. I'm never a fan when people dig into formal philosophy, and this guy not only does that, but, if I'm reading this correctly -- and it's possible I am not -- then he is rather speciesist and of the mind that human intellect is the pinnacle of knowledge and nature and natural urges are too animalistic (as if humans aren't animals...)

 

Dense, dense dense -- both the chapter and me!
