Customer Review: 1. The content is substantive and occasionally provocative, but the writing's off-putting - didactic, repetitive, pedantic, occasionally patronizing - and altogether too much devoted to the personal pronoun.
2. On second thought - after reading the 1st 98 pages - I realized it was not written... more info
Customer Review: A friend at work said to me that we could have solved the high price of gas, if only we started drilling off shore 10 years...I wondered why he could believe that...and now I have read why. Newt gets it (we have to have energy independence); however he is disingenuous and dishonest though out... more info

But, regardless this an eye-opening book. Previously, I have studied the US credit crunch from a retail/Wall Street perspective: that is, subprime loan... more info
Customer Review: Well researched and very well written critique of foreign development aid. Very useful in challenging the conventional wisdom of much strategic aid policy

Any scathing attack on the deficiencies of the 2008 US regime are countered by offering workable opportunities to repair the damage and in particular to... more info
Customer Review: I enjoyed this book and I think the research is compelling. Aside from a chapter in the middle of the book that veers inexplicably into Bush-bashing, Economic Gangsters is well written and very accessible. It is clearly written to introduce their ideas to readers who may have little or no experience... more info
