The long career of the biased scholar turned political guru.

He lacks the one major principle in scholarship, that one has to
be objective and neutral. If you can´t be objective towards your
subject of study, then change the subject.

I have read only a few of his books and not too many of his articles,
but he seems to be at his best when he writes about pre-modern
times. Later he can´t keep his head cool. Instead of impartial study,
he starts to write apologetically, trying to back up his own views
using selective examples and dubious reasoning.
