I think this book is going to change my life

Revisado: 07-18-20

As I listened to this audiobook and learned about different persuasion techniques Trump used to win in 2016, I started remembering times in my life when these techniques had been used on me, and times when I had used them intuitively. I had multiple "lightbulb" moments - I can't say that about most of the books I read. Thank you for sharing this info with your audience Scott - you could have kept this valuable information to yourself forever, but instead you wrote a great book and I hope you make a million dollars. :)

Terrific book!!

Revisado: 06-18-19

I loved this book! I always loved Ariel and Cinderella growing up and when Frozen came out it never sat right with me but I could never put my finger on why. The author’s arguments are so clear and her knowledge of princess stories and symbolism is extensive. I also really appreciate the defense of Snow White as a character with agency - as well as a great synopsis of The Frog Prince, which I haven’t seen but now plan to. Great book!

Good research, but liberal bias is irritating

Revisado: 01-22-19

I gave it three stars because it is more worth reading than not, but it was annoying to keep reading about how all “fixed” voters are motivated by racism. I’m a fixed person, and I vote based on my religious convictions. One possible fix to how deeply fragmented our parties have become would be for the left to stop demonizing religious people all the time. Maybe it’s ok to work at a private Christian school, even if their beliefs differ from yours. You could argue the same for Muslim schools - freedom of religion being one of the reasons our country was founded in the first place. And maybe if the left stopped threatening to tax our nation’s places of worship, fixed voters wouldn’t feel that fear anymore that made them vote for Trump - who we all knew wasn’t a Christian, and frankly we didn’t care, because we knew he would protect our urban churches from closing down and protect our freedom of religion and speech more generally. Anyway, that’s my take. But the research is excellent, so worth the read.

Great book!

I really enjoyed this book! I finished it in two days - it was very entertaining. I have two kids with autism - and I laughed at some parts, and cried at others. It’s a fun read - I could even see it getting produced as a movie. I’m still casting it in my head - maybe Katie Holmes as Anne, can Mila Kunis do an Israeli accent? lol Anyway, its a fun read!

Really enjoyed this book!

I first heard about this book on Bahnsen’s Radio Free California podcast, and I’m so glad I checked it out. I am middle class, and I appreciated all of his arguments on how people on both sides of the aisle are blaming others for their problems and not taking responsibility for their lives. It’s a quick read (or listen, in my case, since I got it on audible) and well worth the time.

Thank you for telling your story Andrew! I loved reading this book - your prose is a joy to read. I also love your philosophy - which I can't do justice to in one sentence in an Amazon review. Amazing book!

Wonderfully articulate book about the importance of traditional marriage to strengthen children and society. Couldn't have been easy to publish this - thank you for your courage!

Excellent book - I couldn't put it down!

Revisado: 11-23-15

I loved how this book exposed the lies of the progressives in the media, in academia and in politics. So much of the craziness happening right now in the culture can be traced back to the schemes these people are pulling on all of us, and we - even those on the left fooled by the pitch - are getting stolen from. Thank you Dinesh - I hope you never stop exposing these schemes!
