From the heterodox right wing of the 1940s to the Buchanan/Rothbard alliance of 1992 and all the way through to what he witnessed personally in Charlottesville, The New Right is a thorough firsthand accounting of the concepts, characters and chronology of this widely misunderstood sociopolitical phenomenon. Today’s fringe is tomorrow’s orthodoxy. As entertaining as it is informative, The New Right is required listening for every American across the spectrum who would like to learn more about the past, present and future of our divided political culture.

I love everything Malice writes
Revisado: 12-12-19
Great book all the way down to the last line capping on Woods.
Make sure you pick up his book on North Korea. Probably the best you will ever read. I think only Michael Malice could make such a depressing topic so thoroughly interesting, creatively done and in the end, hair raising.

Ayn Rand’s dystopic science fiction novella takes place at some unspecified future date. Mankind has entered another dark age as a result of what Rand saw as the weaknesses of socialistic thinking and economics. Technological advancement is now carefully planned -- when it is allowed to occur at all -- and the concept of individuality has been eliminated.

Amazing and relevant
Revisado: 08-02-17
This book is amazingly relevant. It becomes more and more relevant every year. It's like Ayn Rand was an Oracle.
Everyone should read this.
The beginning has a very eerie similarity to current day North Korea.
Amazing.

Eminent biblical scholar Michael D. Coogan offers here a wide-ranging and stimulating exploration of the Old Testament, illuminating its importance as history, literature, and sacred text. Coogan explains the differences between the Bible of Jewish tradition (the "Hebrew Bible") and the Old Testament of Christianity, and also examines the different contents of the Bibles used by Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox Christians, and Protestants.

Challenging book to write....
Revisado: 01-06-16
While this book is definitely challenging to write, it takes a few interpretive liberties, forcing the listener to accept its premise even if you disagree, such as claiming the Jewish monotheistic belief in a God accepted a reality of other gods simply because there are discussions of "other gods" in the OT. Those references are clearly other people treating objects as gods or believing there is a god of the sea etc.... It doesn't mean the God of the OT believes there are also other gods. In any case it has some good clarifications of events, a lot of extra biblical evidences of what was written in the OT which are helpful. The only other thing is it's claim certain events have no archeological evidence when there are some already published. Anyways overall good book.

On March 8, 1421, the largest fleet the world had ever seen set sail from China. Its mission was to "proceed all the way to the ends of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the seas" and unite the whole world in Confucian harmony. When it returned in October 1423, the emperor had fallen, leaving China in political and economic chaos. The great ships were left to rot at their moorings and the records of their journeys were destroyed. Lost in China's long isolation that followed was the knowledge that Chinese ships had reached America 70 years before Columbus.

There have been many books - on a large and small scale - about Steve Jobs, one of the most famous CEOs in history. But this book is different from all the others. Becoming Steve Jobs takes on and breaks down the existing myth and stereotypes about Steve Jobs. The conventional, one-dimensional view of Jobs is that he was half genius, half jerk from youth, an irascible and selfish leader who slighted friends and family alike.

Best book on Jobs period.

Loaded with totally exclusive info on Steve Jobs. Fantastic and original. The book focuses more on his failings that turned him into such an extraordinary guy. Absolutely fantastic.

The number one New York Times best-selling story about American Olympic triumph in Nazi Germany, the inspiration for the PBS documentary The Boys of '36, broadcast to coincide with the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 80th anniversary of the boys' gold medal race. Out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times - the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant.

Tear jerking page turner! So inspiring and awesome. Loved it! What amazing challenges! I found myself falling in love with these guys. I can't believe the struggles they overcame. If this was a work of fiction you might even think it was unrealistic.
