Robert Reich's Reason - Who's read it?

[MsTryska]

and what did ya think?


I just started it last night - and got through the introduction. I must say that alone was fairly energizing.....

[Caution]

1. Just started it myself

Would recommend George Lakoff's book Don't Think of an Elephant: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate--The Essential Guide for Progressives as a companion piece.

2. Check.

actually i read that a couple of months back. (i've been on a tear since November)

3. Read it a year ago.

It's excellent - practical and inspiring. But I loaned it out (and it never came back), so I can't go into any detail without the copy in front of me.

6. cool......i was hoping it

wouldn't turn into a "whining book" - i'd like some tactics now.

4. Me too

I just got it from the library. I plan to read it this week as soon as I am done with the book "The Folly of Empire: What GWB Could Learn from Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt" by John B. Judis.

It is another book that I highly recommend - it sets forth the historical "terrorism" that occurs when country's get into empire building. Anyone read it?

5. ooh.....that sounds interesting.....

i'm gonna have to put that on my list....


here's what i picked up at the library this weekend:

Reason
The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, Greg Palast
Nickel And Dimed, Barbara Ehrenreich (i finished this one in a matter of 2 days - good reading)

I'm currently on the waitlist for Imperial Hubris and Freakonomics
