I have read this paper, and frankly I am a bit annoyed because of the time I wasted. There is basically no scientific content, just the usual physics blogosphere vitriol and gossip, now in a journal article. Where can I read about string theory, as opposed to the politics of string theory?
Sorry about your negative experience. The issue and the paper is about the state of the field, not about the string theory itself. If you want a popular description of the string theory itself, you can try this. For a quality primer, this is a text accessible to upper undergraduates in physics. But be aware of the amount of effort required.
I am SO going to get through all of that.

Though, if I do capitulate, i'm going to program games. And torment players with a final puzzle requiring them to understand a "simple" quantum computer program. MWAHAHAHAHA!
