review 1: One of those books I will reread. I have already revisited many of the ideas and subjects in discussions with friends and family. I have even recommended it to some HS students looking for research material. The authors are genius at making complex situations and problems understandable for the average person. They also give a thoughtful perspective on topics that encourage the reader to view the problem with new eyes and an open mind.
review 2: This is a book which should be read by almost every American. It outlines what we have done wrong in recent years and how we can change our ways. The United States was once a can-do country, willing to sacrifice to improve. Unfortunately in recent times we have decide to rest on our laurels. We believe we are except... moreional by birthright instead of hard work. This book highlights some of the hard choices we must make to NOT become a backwater nation. less
