BOOK REVIEWS NEEDED

PA has a backlog of good books we need to review so we are asking for volunteers. We will send you the book and you will send us an 800 word review within a couple of months. This is a great way to get new books and sharpen your critical skills. Depending on need your review will appear in the print edition of PA, the on-line PA or the editor's blog. No matter where, you will be doing us and yourself a favor. The following 5 books are available now-- please contact me at pabooks@politicalaffairs.net.

1. The War for Wealth: The True Story of Globalization, or Why the Flat World is Broken by Gabor Steingart.

2. Soldiers of Reason: The Rand Corporation and the Rise of the American empire by Alex Abella

3. International Justice and Impunity: The Case of the United States ed. by Nils Andersson

4. Democracy's Prinsoner: Eugene V. Debs, The Great War, and the Right to Dissent by Ernest Freeberg

5. The Last Campaign: Robert Kennedy and 82 Days that Inspired America by Thurston Clarke.

  1. I am a professional book reviewer and would very much like to review Democracy's Prisoner. Debs is a fascinating historical character. If you can send me a real (not review) copy of the book, I will have a review for you within one week. You will find my name all over the internet as a writer and editor, with very frequent reviews at www.curledup.com. I specialize in "nonfiction with a human face" and perhaps could review other bios etc as they come your way.
