Excellent book.
If you have any interest in Hip Hop then this is an essential read for you. I do not agree with reviewers who found it condescending or parasitical. The author is a Jewish guy from Canada but that does not exclude him from writing such a book; he never hides who he is, he was the one who spent five years researching and writing it, and got it published, so more power to him. If you read it it ...

Enthusiastically recommend...
...Mr Cohen's book. Devoured the book in two days. Fascinating perspective on Israel's military, particularly the training behind their elite forces. As an American, I was especially enlightened by Mr Cohen's analysis of our shortsightedness in combatting terrorism here in the states. The Israelis are trained to kill the terrorist. The average US police officer is trained to NOT shoot because of ...

Takedown: The True Story Undercover det Who Brought Down Billion Dollar Mafia Cartel

Putnam Adult, 2002

Unbelievable!
Over the course of the past few years, my love of reading books about the mafia went dormant. When I arrived upon a copy of "Takedown" in a used book store, my interest was revitalized. The story in "Takedown" is unbelievable not because it is untrue, but because it is unbelievable how many times Rick Cowan avoided certain death. Though it is unbelievable at times, it is a true story. By ...

Like Being Along for the Ride!
William Queen has done it again! Reading this story is like being at his side as he pursues one of the most unpredictable and dangerous felons in modern times. I read the book in two days and found myself not wanting to let the story and the people go! I just hope that Queen has more stories to tell of his twenty plus years in law enforcement!

I LOOOOOOVED THIS BOOK!!!!!!
This book was truly incredible. I told everyone I know about it! I was hooked from the moment I opened it and could not put it down until it was done! I actually walked around a little lost, afterwards. I just felt like I had been inside of something really important and then didn't quite know what to do with myself here at home. I was really surprised by the amount of detail Aaron was aloud ...
