The World According to Tomdispatch: America In The New Age of Empire
“Tomdispatch is one of the wonders of the electronic age. A touch of the finger and you get the juciest, meatiest information and analysis, so rich a feast of intelligence and insight I often felt short of breath. Now Tom Engelhardt has assembled some of the best of his dispatches, from some of the boldest and most astute commentators in the country. So take a deep breath and read.”—Howard Zinn“Unapologetically intellectual, relentlessly original, for many of us these essays are the key pieces of analysis that made sense of our post-9/11 world. How odd that many of them have never actually been printed. Until now.”—Naomi Klein“At a time when the fourth estate so often seems to be in its death throes, it’s our great good fortune to have Tomdispatch, where vital and independent commentary abounds and the provocative ideas of genuine public intellectuals are given full reign.”—Susan Faludi“Tomdispatch is indispensable and irreplaceable, a bright light illuminating a dark time in American history. The publication of this splendid collection of dispatches is cause for celebration.”—Andrew J. Bacevich“Tomdispatch is essential reading. It is a one-stop shop where you can find the most provocative thinkers writing the most eloquent and hard hitting articles about the most pressing issues of the day. Read, get mad, and take action.”—Amy Goodman and David Gooodman
