Sort:  

enjoyed the read, but it does appear you pretty much inserted the book as if it was your own words.

Well not as they were my words :D

But yeah, I care more if the post is good than if it's original. It's not stealing- (besides, the author is sourced) that's a selected and edited text from a 200 pg. book and just as much of my commentary. Retelling the text with my own words would be pointless (it's already written!), ugly (Campbell took several years to write it), and quite frankly I'd find it sacrilegious :D

This a good topic for the next ramble :)
