One of the best and most timely books I've ever read. Besides being a good read, I learned so much about the Middle East. I am 70 years old and my 16 year old grandson loved the book as much as I did. He's a mountain climber!!

Congratulations to Ms. Mayer for a very consise and clearly set-out examination and explanation of the Bush Presidency and the dark motivations and the unexplicable dealings of his co-horts and cronies.

from Harper
Price: $16.77

Customer Review:
You do not have to read very far into this book to know that it is a Pulitzer-Prize winning work. It is far more than just the revelations about the abuse of power. One of his revelations, not at all publicized, is that one of his research assistants, working on one of the projects for the book, was... more info

Customer Review:
This book has made me afraid to stay in America. I read the book and now I want to move to china or india so bad.
this book got tedious after awhile. I had to keep my eyes from closing and my mind from running somewhere else while I read. In a sense, he kept retelling what he already said in... more info

from William Morrow
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:
Mr. English does a great job of telling the real story, or at least as real as can be known. He also takes some time to set the record straight on some common falacies about the mob. Great book, my 16 year old now reading it.

I was happy to see that this book was added to Oprah's book club, this ment that millions who never knew of this book would read it or at least hear it's story. I read this in college as part of the debates on wither the US should have entered WW2 before 1941. When I was done I felt that I had been... more info

Customer Review:
Klein's "The Shock Doctrine" weaves together the systematic oppression of South American countries, the "help" given to Poland, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the current war in Iraq.

from Harper Perennial Modern Classics
Price: $11.37

Customer Review:
It's obvious this cat knew the kind of book he wanted to write before he started. He just needed the facts and data to back it up. A lot of this guy's opinions and conclusions are probably right. But it's hard to lend much credibility to a historian who grabs at so many straws. One thing I remember... more info

from Berkley Trade
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
Since HBO just finished running a seven part miniseries based on this book, I decided I would probably get more out of the miniseries by reading the book. As is the case in situations like this, you definitely get more out of the book than the television show. And in this case, it makes for a... more info
