Book Reviews of Silencing Political Dissent: How Post-September 11 Anti-Terrorism Measures Threaten Our Civil Liberties
Book Review: The outrageous bias renders this book unbelievable...
Summary: 1 Stars
I suspect that the author of "Silencing Political Dissent" (Nancy Chang) is sincere and has good intentions. But the book is a gross overreaction to laws that have been passed since 9/11.
Even worse, Chang's obvious, sometimes vicious (or so it seems to me), blatant bias against the current administration renders the contents of the book completely unbelievable (and, quite frankly, laughable).
The fact is that I DO dissent, and I do so without fear. Thus how can I possibly believe Chang's assertions? No. Scare tactics, whether from the far-left or from the far-right, do not affect me.
I would NOT recommend this book to a friend.
Of course, this review (including all of the above paragraphs) is merely my opinion.
