Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based upon a real weapon - the Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) - which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States.

Forgive it the right wing bias and it's quite good
Revisado: 08-16-09
As many others have commented, this book does have a very obvious right wing bias, but if you can look past this it's an enjoyable read. It's not the most sophisticated piece of writing you'll ever face, and the suggestion that the money the US spends on combatting global warming might be better spent on defense left me gobsmacked, but ignore the 'this-could-really-happen' scaremongering and you've got a solid work of fiction.
On the other hand, if you believe every home should have a gun rack, that they don't make cars like they used to, that folks should have more respect for the military and their elders, and that city-folk ain't got nuthin' on us, then this book is your dream ticket.
Either way, it's quite good.

Only for people that like to be hated.

The majority of this book repetitively makes the case for how important it is to be likeable. Anyone that doesn't see any value in being liked will, no doubt, be converted by this book.
But seriously, how many people with this world view are going to pay money for this book? None? So, if like me, you're hoping to pick up some clever insights to give you the edge in personal and professional relationships, this book will seriously disappoint you, as it did me.
I expected some in depth Neural Linguistic Programming, but instead was preached at that being likeable is important for four hours, and then suffered two hours of being told to smile. The only valuable nuggets were when the author quotes directly from Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" which is also feels very dated in light of the work done in the field of Neural Linguistic Programming in recent years.
I've listened to over fifty books from Audible and this is the first one that has been a complete waste of time and money. Not a bad average I suppose.
