Jim Bovard on C-SPAN, Sunday 11/02 8-9pm Booknotes, Terrorism and Tyranny
Author James Bovard will appear on C-SPAN 's Booknotes with Brian Lamb this Sunday, 11/02, from 8 pm to 9 pm (I believe it may re-air from 11 pm to midnight). Bovard will be discussing his new book "Terrorism and Tyranny: Trampling Freedom, Justice, and Peace to Rid the World of Evil". I've read the book and recommend it highly. For program notes go to: http://www.booknotes.org/Program/?ProgramID=1752 For additional information on the works of James Bovard please go to: http://www.jimbovard.com bfrom the publisher's website "The war on terrorism is the first political growth industry of the new Millennium." So begins Jim Bovard's newest and, in some ways, most provocative book as he casts yet another jaundiced eye on Washington and the motives behind protecting "the homeland" and prosecuting a wildly unpopular war with Iraq. For James Bovard, as always, it all comes down to a trampling of personal liberty and an end to privacy as we know it. From airport security follies that protect no one to increased surveillance of individuals and skyrocketing numbers of detainees, the war on terrorism is taking a toll on individual liberty and no one tells the whole grisly story better than Bovard.
