About This Item
Sydney: Allen & Unwin, 2006. 1st Australian ed.. Paperback trade, very good condition, minor edgewear. 259 pp. George Soros made billions anticipating seismic changes in the financial markets and has used that money to try and change the world. In this book he brings that commitment to the parlous state of America since the 2001 terrorist attacks. He offers a strong critique of President George W. Bush's policies, particularly the War on Terror. They fall short in the arenas most important to Soros: democracy, human rights and open society. As a survivor of the Holocaust and a life-long proponent of free expression, Soros understands the meaning of freedom. And yet his differences with Bush, another proponent of freedom, are profound. He reflects on why the Democrats may have lost the high ground on these values issues and how they might reclaim it.
