I read what was available through the google books doc, and it didn't exactly whet my appetite to buy it. I saw no new insights into the man's life or thought, just the repeated mantra that "we need to study this guy more because he is dangerous."
Even in the level of critique I failed to notice anything of value, and there could be something of value here. I have not seen any serious attempt by any mainstream scholar to deconstruct his views.

This book is outrageously priced and, I would imagine, rather hostile. I offered to do an exchange with Furlong for the Black Front Press title on Evola and he declined. I think that speaks volumes.

Another mainstream academic title on J. Evola. Only parts of the book can be viewed.
