I finished the book the other day. Overall I'd recommend it, it's not a long read and the author writes well. She's definitely approaching it from the perspective of a socialist.

Do you think her analysis is correct?

Largely yes, you can get something from the book even if you aren't a socialist. Even if you've never heard the term PMC (professional managerial class) she provides enough color for the reader. She's a bit snarky at times, which is entertaining. A worthwhile read packed into 77 pages. Here are the chapter names for context:
  • "Transgressing" the Boundaries of Professionalism
  • The PMC has children
  • The PMC reads a book
  • The PMC has sex
I liked her take on the Obama years and how meaningful change of Occupy Wall Street was diverted into sexual harassment and race hysteria on college campuses, more business as usual.
