Hijacking America by Susan George
Major new book from Susan George - a leading political commentator whose previous books have been massively influential and widely read and reviewed. Fascinating, thorough and often chilling account of this decades-long transformation of American society and political culture.
"The forces that have been 'hijacking America,' lucidly exposed in this well-informed and searching study, are doubtless powerful as well as ominousTheir influence is not confined to the United States. Unless they are contained and reversed, prospects are not bright for a decent and civilized world."
Noam Chomsky
Noam Chomsky
"A powerful, shocking and extremely important book. In a gripping investigation, Susan George uncovers the central problem with the US state and shows us how to confront it."
George Monbiot
"Susan George has sounded a timely warning: the US intends to brook no rivals."
Tribune
"Noteworthy in Obama's campaign was his appearance before the AIPAC convention and his subsequent silence on the invasion of the Gaza Strip. George's call for the organisation of the US left remains pertinent."
