Review:Every thinking person on the planet (and everyone who is trying hard to be a thinking person) should read this book for the very survival of our planet.

The president has taken it on his vacation this week, and that tells you something. The author is a "sober optimist," and now I am IF we all work together to build a healthy environment with clean energy and new jobs and beautiful cities, urban areas, forests and oceans. It can be done. You have to concentrate on the book, but the phra... Read more

Review:Everyone who is interested in the root causes of the chaos and violence in the Middle East should read this book. Wright alternates a great story --the day by day unfolding of the Cape David Israeli-Egyptian peace conference convened by President Jimmy Carter -- with the history of Israel. Wright is a lucid writer who does meticulous research. You will have a new understanding of today's news if your read about those 13 days in September. Read more

Review:To the person from Kilgore, Texas:
Never have I heard such a mindless and uneducated tirade! Unfortuneatelty, what you do not seem to realize, is that despite your bigotry, everyone has the right to vote and decide how the U.S. is run.
By the way, blue color workers built the country! Also please note that you should not be so quick to decide what God has in mind for everyone. For someone who is so Christian, you sure do seem to have a lot of hatred and bigotry boiling up inside you. I don... Read more

Review:Hegemony or Survival continues Noam Chomsky's critique of post-WWII American foreign policy, and puts recent developments squarely in the context of the evidence for American policymakers' willingness to risk the human race's survival in their quest for global hegemony. In the book, Professor Chomsky takes us on a guided tour of various hot spots around the world which he identifies as generating undisputed facts about which, due to the distortions of American politicians and media pundits, our...

Review:What a masterful handling of such a premise. In an age of countless of studios and authors trying desperately scrape together a narrative that revolves around a dystopian future, this one persists in remaining one of the select few to go about it the right way, even after all these years. This could have easily treated the audience like a like a parent would a child, kneeling down and spoon feeding the information or message to us, but instead it conveys, in a tasteful way, a tale that presents ...

Review:The writing is as clear and concise as the author's thinking. It's obvious that she knows her subjects well and has great insight. Sarah Kendzior is an excellent scholar and researcher, who can make that important information easy for the rest of us to read and appreciate. Read more

Review:Excellent and well-written non-fiction book. I learned enough facts, (that I already suspected) to not EVER vote for this person. She only cares for the people to get the vote to be President. Once voted in office, then it's all about her. She has the love for power that is unprecedented in American history. The author backs up everything he writes with interviews and publications, so the reader can be certain they are reading a factual account. I have just read his latest book; "The Amateur: O...

Review:Another deep-thinking look at the world that, like "Freakonomics" and "Outliers," make you see familiar parts of your life from a new angle, with a new and (hopefully) improved perspective. My high school students have loved all three books. Read more

Review:Obama or Cheney had this guy murdered along with his kids. Michael Hastings, Andrew Breitbart all journalist whistleblowers. If he could OBAMA would murder Edward Snowden also. These DICTATORS ARE MENTALLY DERANGED.
America is a mafia Stasi. WHAT A NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!! Read more

Review:Brill presents the planning and launch of the Affordable Care Act "Obamacare" with a remarkable insider's view. You will be torn between contempt for the process and admiration for some of the players. I was entertained and informed. Read more
