Customer Review: In browsing my book shelf I came upon and then found myself rereading this incredibly simple yet profound book.

Customer Review: I have known, for a long time that we were not the guys in the white hats, but this book is a true eye opener.It is as horrifying as it informative.

Some of his extrapolations not only seem unjustified but... more info
