The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism
from Macmillan Audio
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:

I would describe myself as reasonably well informed, economically literate, a Wall Street investor and Democrat. I found this book eye-opening, although I believe Klein is pushing a point of view which is frequently incorrect; e.g. privatization is not always bad, and Great Britain under Thatcher... more info

I actually had to get this book for a college class, and while it isn't the kind of book I would choose for myself to read, it has had quite an impact on my way of thinking.

The Anglo Files: A Field Guide to the British
from Tantor Media
Price: $26.59

Customer Review:

Sarah Lyall is an American journalist married to a British journalist. The Anglo Files is part memoir, part traveler's advisory, part hate mail, and part love affair. If that seems like a lot to pack into a 263 page book not including index, it would be in the hands of a less gifted writer. Lyall's... more info

The Monster of Florence
from Grand Central Publishing
Price: $17.15

Customer Review:

I think the authors might overdo the mentions of Thomas Harris in the book, but it is an interesting footnote that Harris extensively researched the Monster of Florence killer for his "Hannibal" series. The Monster of Florence is unique in several ways I think. Many of you know, if you read my... more info

In a Time of War: The Proud and Perilous Journey of West Point' Class of 2002
from Henry Holt and Co.
Price: $18.15

Customer Review:

This book was very personal for me as I knew the first soldier from the West Point Class of 2002 to be killed in Iraq. My family knew Todd Bryant since he was a young boy of about 10-years-old. Such a profound tragedy to lose him at the age of 23 and this book was fabulous in not only describing... more info

Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful mercenary Army

Price: $62.74

Customer Review:

The pages are filled with more information than is needed. There are some interesting tidbits, but a lot of it is just biased or unnecesary. Its a struggle to stay interested in. Oh, and on page 97 the word 'Constructed' is spelled wrong. It is definately thoroughly researched, but aparently it... more info

State of Denial: Bush at War, Part III
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $19.80

Customer Review:

This is an excellent study of how bureaucratic politics can deform the foreign policy process. You don't have to agree with Woodward's conclusions to benefit from this book.
