Review:This is not an easy read, as it is a scholarly work with a lot of charts and tables, and considerable discussion of the statistical techniques and regression analyses that Lott used in arriving at the conclusions presented here. But I would categorize it as a "must-read" for anyone who has a serious interest in the gun control debate, and who is looking for facts - rather than emotion - upon which to form an opinion. Lott's conclusions are compelling and well supported. He also deals, in a st... Read more

Review:There is no reason to doubt what this insider from the Bush administration includes in his book. However, McClellan shows a lot of idealism, which does not fit with politics, not only in Washington, but everywhere else in the world. So he thinks George Bush's campaign for president in 2000 carried slogans similar to those raised by Democratic Presidential Candidate Barrack Obama? Is this a joke?
McClellan argues that Bush was a candidate with a lot of idealism that the two of them could have ... Read more

Review:I can't say anything new about a book this famous, so I will just give my personal opinion about why and how to read it. Why: because it is a timeless description of how American democracy works, in both theory and practice. As to how to read it, I have this book sitting next to the Bible on my bedside bookshelf, and I read in the same way. I have been reading Democracy in America in a piecemeal way over several decades, in small installments, with time in between to think and ponder and questio... Read more

Review:As a fan of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and his emotional, almost ranting narratives about the unnumbered innocents (and the few that were guilty) carted from Black Maria to interrogation (and if not summarily executed) to the gulag, I came out of both volumes of the "Gulag Archipelago" wanting to know more than just the angry anecdotal diatribes that Solzhenitsyn reiterates endlessly. I wanted facts, reasons, and perhaps an observer somewhat farther removed from the tragedy than Solzhenitsyn. I orde... Read more

Review:Received the book in the condition described. Smooth transaction. No complaints. If you're ordering books for the new semester... trust this buyer no need to worry the book will arrive as described and on time. The cover of this book does not have a glossy finish like most hardcover books. It has more of a matte finish and has an unusually soft coating when you run your hands on the hardcover feels like a thin powdery surface. Doesn't slip out of your hands when you are in a hurry and on the go... Read more
