I'm sure it's that too, but I've currently got it checked out as an interlibrary loan serving as my bedtime reading, and I'm finding it really insightful. But perhaps this is because I'm starting from a point of bewilderment as to what motivates most people to act as they do.

But the miracle is that rather than being out of order, the system mostly works, and tends to keep working. What I like about the book is that it strives to explain the situation from the inside as a mostly coherent belief system, rather than critiquing it from outside as untenable.
