The really BIG picture, it's a swing & a miss!

Feeling I fooled myself with hopeful thinking of this book, if your looking for a well organized, concise, clear book on the ultra Elite, this is the opposite. This book is so pack full of mumble-jumble babble, like some extreme ecentric grad school Lecturer from hell. I made it to page 50, then tryed paging through the rest. If you want to torture yourself, just try to squeeze some juice out of this lemon, otherwise your going to have to keep searching in the dark for these sociopathic Predators.

Good Reviews of selected Books

I enjoyed the format and the books selected for review were mostly comprised of ones I would read. I used this book as a cross-reference to THE SHADOW OF POWER BY JAMES PERLOFF. Certainly for anyone researching history, this book is an excellent reference. The last book reviewed was the one which I found most disagreement. It is entitled: Let Us Fix America and was written in 1994, so Jones was not privy to our recent events. On the whole, I would recommend this compilation of book reviews without reservation.

A Revelation

The whole point of this book is to introduce the reader to the worldwide political/economic consolidation called the New World Order (NWO). Each of the 10 or 12 chapters is a synopsis of some other book exploring some facet of the NWO. This is a quick way to get an overall vision of how (for example) the Federal Reserve System (The Creature from Jekyll Island), tax-free charities (The Tax Free Foundations), environmentalism (Report from Iron Mountain), and CIA participation in the narcotics trade (Dope, Inc) are interrelated. Each, in its own way, advances the goals of the world ruling class towards "vertically integrating" us into a single totalitarian oligarchy. As you might guess, the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Trade Organization are all players in this scheme. The most shocking chapter is the analysis of George Orwell's "1984" as a work of NONFICTION masquarading as fiction. It's all a lot to swallow at first, but followup with research supports the overall thesis. This book was my first step towards a much more coherant and predictive understanding of current events than what is offered on FOX News. Is this a "conspiracy theory"? If by "conspiracy theory" you mean that it supposes that two or more people have agreed to commit a crime together, then yes, and it is a worldview which deserves to be evaluated on its merits.

The professor loves it

This was a gift for my husband (a business professor) who loves this book & recommends it to others.

A FINAL WARNING - WAKE UP AMERICA!!

The book is mainly a summary of list of books that the author considers as essential reading. And it is. The tone is fairly dry and hard to follow sometimes because you have to read the books that the author is presenting yourself and form your own judgments. The chapter on his own book reads the best as he understands it best himself.


Note to future readers of this book : You should not buy into stories that cannot provide facts, evidence, legitimate documentation, reasoning, scientifically or historically tested theories, and others.

But you should at least consider the ones that can do provide those support. And when you do go through all the legitimate processes and find out what is really going on in the world, what is causing all these problems, who cause them, and what to do about them you will have learned probably the single most important truth.

IF you are really lazy and cannot afford time and money to read this book then simply go onto youtube and check out things like Loose Change, Architects and Engineers for 9/11, Presentations by Mike Ruppert, Alex Jones, Ron Paul, Cynthia McKinney, Max Keiser, Peter Schiff, Jim Rodgers, Marc Faber, Ralph Nader, Jeff Rense, and their affiliates.
