and the Quest to Bring Down the Most Wanted Man on Wall Street
and the Quest to Bring Down the Most Wanted Man on Wall Street

Review:This book is extremely well written and pulls together a lot of information from various sources. It also has a number of proprietary insights that made it a great read even for someone like me that followed these events very closely as they unfolded. Ms. Kolhatkar is a talented writer and she set the bar high with this one. I look forward to her next book. Read more

Review:Have lofty aspirations of world dominance?

Dream of the laments of your enemies?

Do you want to learn to bend the masses to your will?

Here's the book for you!

I used the knowledge I gained from this book to depose the pretender to the throne of Carthage last week. And I'm only halfway through.

I also used its power to trick my wife into switching sides on the bed so I could be closer to the fan.

I'm drunk with power.

Come and join me. Read more

The Nordic Theory of Everything - In Search of a Better Life
The Nordic Theory of Everything - In Search of a Better Life

Review:This book sits in an uncomfortable position. It is largely anecdote driven, which makes it hard to justify the lengthy page count. It is largely an explanation of how things work in Scandinavia with relatively superficial suggestions of how to transplant them to the US. To a certain extent that is okay: just having a better explanation of how other countries do things can open the eyes of Americans who, like all people everywhere, assume that their policies, choices, and way of live is universal...

and Sex Changed a Nation at War - How Sisterhood
and Sex Changed a Nation at War - How Sisterhood

Review:Overall, the memoir was written well and the story told was compelling and ,certainly, interesting. Living here in the US one may never know what it's like to live in the middle of a war and having to constantly be on the run for your life, meager sustenance, clothing. My respect and admiration for sister Leymah to have persevered and survived such a traumatic ordeal is unwavering. However, I feel as though the reviews were a bit over the top as it relates to the story content. Perhaps, I am... Read more

UNLIKEABLE: The Problem with Hillary
UNLIKEABLE: The Problem with Hillary

Review:Didn't realize Hillary was so disliked by so many. It's scary. Always tried to keep an open mind about left vesus right, but after reading this...I don't see how anyone could vote for this person. Problem is, many women support her because they won't look more into all that baggage she carries and will cast their vote based solely on her sex. Read more
