Review:Chris Hayes has penned a book that contains the same breadth of perspective and depth of inquiry that made "Up" so much fun to watch. He has identified a critical element of our current intellectual and political malaise, and explores it with interesting insight and analysis. It's too soon to tell if his prediction about how we might find our way out of the mess we're in will come true, but I hope it will - the problem he describes is real and dire, and if we can't find the way toward a new meth...

Review:Good account of the hacking of the USA election and the manipulation of it uninformed citizens. This should be a wake up call for all in the USA to become more involved with our political process and understand how the media (all of the media from FOX and CNN to NPR) parses the news. It should say to all of us verify your sources and consider many sources. Look at the media sources that you don't necessarily agree with. Look at sources that maybe contrary to what you believe. Evaluated it, think... Read more

Review:Zeihan is a great geopolitical thinker and this book distills his work in a very concise, readable and entertaining way. More then that, the last 12 months have really showed the relevancy of his predictions, coming on even faster then he had anticipated (more on that in The Absent Superpower, another must read).

If you are interested in the larger view about what is happening in the world, where we are going and why someone like Trump was going to be the next president regardless of the ... Read more

Review:Extremely interesting. What an amazing man. Just so you know it ends when he is VP and President McKinley dies and the kindle book is only about 80%. I was surprised but should have realized it's about the Early years and Rise of Theodore. Would recommend and want to read the next book about his presidency. Read more

Review:Naomi Klein has summed it all up. There definitely is a lot of history to go through, but it is so interesting and keeps your interest all the way through. It is far from a personal perspective on Global and Domestic Shock Economics. She backs up everything with citations from a multitude of sources, worldwide. Her allusions and similes based on hard facts scared the hell out of me of what the government has been capable of over the past 60 years.

It seems like she has "outed" the Shock... Read more

Review:This man in brilliant, love the writing style. Even for a new be like me in this topic, this book was an easy and entraining read. I was not expecting to be laughing while reading. Profit over people is eye opening, and extremely well written. I highly suggest it. Read more

Review:This book is about marketing meets public relations meets political science. In other words Corporate Power. Something I hadn't adequately considered. It's published in 2000 so I'd really be interested in an update or 2nd edition that was more current. Even though dated, this book will enjoy a privileged position on my book shelves. Read more

Review:In synopsis of Marx, capitalism--whereupon he provides multifarious, multitudinous, and incontrovertible evidence--negates ourselves (qua, humanity). Succinctly: "Capitalism Kills." Ergo, it's our responsibility--qua, humans--to "negate the negation" (i.e., supercede capitalism previous to its terminating ourselves).

This brief volume calls capitalism to account on multiple fronts; while capitalism is a death warrant , Prof. Chomsky--in seasoned, left-veteran fashion--whineth not. Th... Read more

Review:For anyone interested in North Korea, this is the book for you. The book starts by chronicling the history of modern day North Korea and the rise to power of Kim Il Sung and his son Kim Jong Il. The second section of the book contains numerous interviews conducted by the author with North Korean defectors. From lowly workers at the bottom of society to the high officials in the North Korean system, this book paints a clear picture inside this elusive regime. The book culminates in a section rega...
