Essays and reviews concentrating on politics, economics, sociology and culture. With a forward by Barbara Ehrenreich. Most of the essays began as book reviews. As book reviews they were superior when published. As essays they are exceptional for their intelligence and clarity. George’s subjects are politics, religion and society. His subject is what people who are thinking ought to be paying attention to. The current cliché is that America has no public intellectuals. Every sentence George writes gives the lie to this bit of lazy journalese.
