      I find it rather difficult to regularly use a book as an argument for something if you haven’t even read it.

        That is a good attitude. I obviously don’t see the need in this case. It’s not prose but facts. They can’t be significantly altered in the summary.

          You don’t think you’d benefit knowing what you regularly cite?

          What facts?

            For the most part I reference the Wikipedia page. The quotes were on your request.

            The Wikipedia page describes the way the situation is conceptualized.

              Since you “obviously don’t see the need” to read it, yet still feel the need to regularly cite it, I’d like to know which facts from this book you are talking about.
