Product review: First off, I'm a leftist. But I'm not willing to sacrifice the idea that one should argue ones political position. This book tries to find a justification for resistance to Empire. What is Empire? It is simply never defined except as "world order" which is in turn defined only negatively (IE. as what world order is NOT as opposed to what it IS). Marx was a terrible writer. But at least at the core of his ideas were concrete concepts like "class" and "capitalism". I think I have working definitions of these things. I have no definition of Empire or half the other abused terms like "ontological" and "juridical" in this piece of trash. Yes, I know what these words mean, but my definitions of them just don't do the kind of work these authors intend these terms to do for them. Go read Marx! He has some *major* problems, but at least once you decipher the prose you will be left with actual concepts.

Product review: I could bore you with a summary of this book but that would be useless since you can read other reviews. I only have to say this book is great, the slow laid-back writing style gives you a feel for how 12th century Koreans lived at that time. A great character study to discuss with classroom or other young readers. Invest in this book!

Review title: Great price but kinda lame Product review: I bought the A310 because a friend broke my digital elph and I didn't have the cash to get a new one. I've always had fantastic experiences with canon products (printers, scanners, cameras) and at $125 for a digital camera how could I lose. Sadly the A310 is no elph. It's bulky and it takes way too long between photos to capture anything quickly. It's just sort of...eh. The price is right but I advise you to save up anther $150 and get an Elph. They rock!
