Summary: Towards a better future?
Comment: Unlike many of the other essential books on the post 9/11 world, this one does not leave you entirely stranded in the countries of outrage and despair. This offers a a more heartening path through the consequences of policies that do rightly arouse outrage. Suskind relates the experiences of a number of representative people ranging from U.S. intelligence operatives to a young Afghan student in the U.S. to a lawyer trying to represent a Guantanamo Bay inmate. He creates a compelling picture of how different people are coping with the aftermath of the Bush/Cheney/Blair policies that have so damaged the world. By focussing on the particulars he shows how many people out there are representing the universal human desire to make things better for themselves and others. Highly recommended.

Summary: ESSENTIAL
Comment: CHECK OUT the hour long DEMOCRACY NOW interview with the author just google DEMOCRACY NOW and search their archive from August 13th 2008.
The bit with the neo-con idiot from our own Daily Telegraph is both priceless and disturbing.
Listen or read the interview BUY THE BOOK !!
