With Every Mistake by Gwynne Dyer
This essential collection contains the best of Gwynne Dyer's writing on the post- September 11 world. Since 1973, writer, historian and filmmaker Gwynne Dyer has written a widely syndicated newspaper column on international affairs, regularly published in 45 countries. With Every Mistake is not only a collection of the very best of Dyer's recent work, but an examination of how, time and again, the media skews fact and opinion, wielding formidable influence on how we all shape our own thoughts. And why is so much of the information wrong? Is it herd instinct, official manipulation, robber-baron owners with ideological obsessions -- or just the conflict between the inherently bitty, short-term nature of news reporting and analysis and the longer perspectives needed to understand what is actually going on? How much misinformation stems from simple ignorance and laziness?Gwynne Dyer, a freelance journalist, columnist, author, broadcaster, and lecturer on international affairs, has worked as a freelance journalist, columnist, author, broadcaster, and lecturer on international affairs for more than 20 years. His column is distributed worldwide and has been translated into over a dozen languages. War: The Deadly Custom, Future: Tense, and The Mess They Created are among his works. Gwynne Dyer is the author of many books, including War: The Deadly Custom, Future: Tense, and The Mess They Created, and has worked as a freelance journalist, columnist, and broadcaster.
