Not really, if I recall correctly pretty much all of Heinlein's really famous works, Starship Troopers, Stranger in a Strange Land, The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, they're all about seeing the world differently. Think about shit differently, don't accept the world as it is, and his books are a view into what if we thought about x differently
But it's not so much just accept the books at face value, this is what we should be like

I just read this and Starship Troopers so im pretty hyped on his works right now
