Negative Positive
Title: enlightening
Review: The broad scope of Phillips' latest work is stunning. The manner in which he draws on historical parallels of earlier global hegemons to the contemporary US is enlightening and even a bit disturbing. The same can be said of his extensive description of the role religion, especially protestant fundamentalism in the South, has played and continues to play ever more so in American politics. This is the sort of book which will keep you awake at night thinking.
