1.		Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle from Nation Books Price: $13.18 Customer Review: This book begins with a howl of anger and ends with a shriek of anguish. Chris Hedges doesn't pull any punches in this fevered attack on contemporary U.S. culture. Indeed, by the end of the book this reader was feeling punch drunk. The first chapter is an impressive tour-de-force, using... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

2.		War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning from Tantor Media Price: $29.96 Customer Review: I read a lot for a middle school teacher and there is no person I would rather read than Chris Hedges. War Is A Force (WIAF) is part autobiographical, part biographical, part political, and part theological commentary. Though you would be hard pressed to find someone who thinks it is a happy read,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

3.		American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America from Free Press Price: $2.98 Customer Review: In this hard-hitting book, Chris Hedges attacks head-on the Christian Right and their ideology, dominionism, which calls for the church to take political and institutional power and install a theocracy in the US. The movement has very wealthy backers for two main reasons, politically, the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		Losing Moses on the Freeway: The 10 Commandments in America from Free Press Price: $2.95 Customer Review: Chris Hedges takes each of the Ten Commandments, interprets it, and through personal experience or anecdotes shows how violating this commandment causes unhappiness, misery, even war and destruction. Solid biblical backing from his seminary days does not get in the way of his teaching valuable... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

5.		When Atheism Becomes Religion: America's New Fundamentalists from Free Press Price: $0.19 Customer Review: Hedges did not invest time researching material for his book, so you should not invest money in purchasing this book. A major thrust of his argument is that the atheist authors believe that without religion, science and reason will take us to a utopian world. I have read Richard Dawkins book,... more info	Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.		The Will to Resist: Soldiers Who Refuse to Fight in Iraq and Afghanistan from Haymarket Books Price: $11.57 Customer Review: Dahr Jamail provides another excellent account of the inefficacy of war. As with his first book, Beyond the Green Zone: Dispatches from an Unembedded Journalist in Occupied Iraq, Jamail takes the reader where mainstream media refuses to go. This time he skillfully exposes the resistance inside the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.		What Every Person Should Know About War from Free Press Price: $6.81 Customer Review: Chris Hedges has no expectation that war will ever be eradicated. War is "an inevitable part of the human condition," he laments. The world has been at peace a mere eight percent of recorded human history. He discusses the horrible death tolls, the weapons used in wars, the odds of dying or being... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

8.		Collateral Damage: America's War Against Iraqi Civilians from Nation Books Price: $2.25 Customer Review: This is just a factional story of how to make enemies out of potential friends, after all, the majority of Iraqis were glad to get help to get rid of Saddam. Unfortunately it seems that this was the intended result, to create further chaos, rather than peace. Well documented.

10.		Road from ar Ramadi: The Private Rebellion of Staff Sergeant Mejia: An Iraq War Memoir from Haymarket Books Price: $5.65 Customer Review: Carlos Meija moved with his mother to the USA in order to seek a better life. As often happens, this "better life" didn't exactly turn out the way things had been planned or promised. The US Military has a number of programs whereby they pay for your uni or college classes, and this attracts a... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
