Goth: Undead Subculture 4 reviews
Duke University Press, 2007
Through The Glass Darkly
+ Not bad at all + Gothic Scholarship Discovers Goth
A reviewer above wondered how self proclaimed Goths might take this book and some of the views on Goths it expounds. As an old schooler, I completely welcome it. I think resistance to a anyone taking a dead on 20/20 look at any subculture or scene (which as the book points out are not the same) is ...

Boom!: Voices of the Sixties Personal Reflections on the '60s and Today 92 reviews Tom Brokaw
Random House, 2007
Surprised
+ Very Informative Book + Boom
First, let me just say that I am surprised. I figured a left wing media guy with a left wing reputation would have written a left wing book, but this wasn't the case. Having been in college in the late Sixties myself, I lived through much of what this book talks about. I wondered what happened to ...

Thomas Jefferson: Author of America (Eminent Lives) 37 reviews Christopher Hitchens
Eminent Lives, 2005
History is a tragedy, not a morality tale
If you need an extremely well-written, concise, sympathetic, balanced and reasonably complete introduction to Thomas Jefferson, Hitchens has produced just the thing. Hitchens does particularly well where Thomas Jefferson's views mesh with his own - namely on religion and the disestablishment ...

Richistan: A Journey Through the American Wealth Boom and the Lives of the New Rich 66 reviews Robert Frank
Crown, 2007
Amusing Anthropological Analysis of Astronomically Affluent
+ The rich ARE different after all! (They have more $$$$$) + Interesting little book
Mr. Frank does an excellent job of presenting an overview of this rarefied subculture. Base insecurities of the human condition are displayed by this obscenely wealthy crowd's habitual one-upmanship social gatherings, Freudian obsessions with having the biggest yacht, mansion or whatever and rarely ...

God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything 799 reviews Christopher Hitchens
Twelve Books, Hachette Book Group, 2007
The book is great, but..
+ Reason and Free-Thought Can Prevail Over Dictums + One of my new favorites
..how about actually reading the book BEFORE writing the review. It's just like religious "science": belivers don't need to research before writing. Please spare us this crap. You only make bigger fools out of yourselfs, how that is even possible.
