About this product

Product Information

At the time George W. Bush ordered American forces to invade Iraq, 70 per cent of Americans believed Saddam Hussein was linked to 9/11. Voters in Ohio, when asked by pollsters to list what stuck in their minds about the campaign, most frequently named two Bush television ads that played to fears of terrorism. We live in an age when the 30-second television spot is the most powerful force shaping the electorate's thinking, and America is in the hands of an administration less interested than any previous administration in sharing the truth with the citizenry. Related to this and of even greater concern is the current administration's lack of interest in the process by which the truth is ascertained - first among which are an embrace of open inquiry, in which unexpected and even inconvenient facts can lead to unexpected conclusions. How did the US get here? And how much damage has been done to the functioning of American democracy and its role as steward of its national security? Never has there been a worse time for the US to lose the capacity to face the reality of long-term challenges, from national security to the economy, from issues of health and social welfare to the environment. As The Assault on Reason shows us, there is precious little time to waste. Drawing on a life's work in politics as well as on the work of experts across a broad range of disciplines, Al Gore has written a farsighted and powerful manifesto for clear thinking.

    This item (book) was sent in a trackable large envelope but not one of my three emails asking for a tracking number was answered. Although the book is in good condition, it was also described as being 'signed by the author': it is not. It arrived today, the latest date suggested, nine days after purchase. I shall not be using this seller again.

    Thanks for the book. Finally arrived today! Took a month from order, partly because seller was away till the 30th April, took another few days to post, then the good old Aussie post took 2 weeks more. Did email seller to let them know it still hadn't arrived and would leave feedback when it did. No response.
