    The Right Fights Back, follows the campaign for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, which promises to be one of the most hotly contested and closely fought in recent memory, as establishment Republicans, Tea Party favorites, and dark horse insurgents vie to take on President Obama in the November election. From the role of Super PACS and conservative interest groups to the clashes of personality and policy that will define the race to capture the GOP nomination, this is a history-as-it-happens account of the resurgent American right at the crossroads.

    Story

    Politics matters to us all and keeping up with developments is not easy. This is the first of four to be released at three month intervals and it is a good way to catch up and stay current. The writers are tops in their field.

    Two of America’s most perceptive political reporters join forces for an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at the race for the White House in POLITICO’s Playbook 2012, a series of four instant digital books on the 2012 presidential election. The second edition, Inside the Circus, pulls back the curtain on the pursuit of the Republican nomination, as operatives jockey for position and strategists vie to fashion a message that can win over all factions of the fractious GOP.

    Story

    There are few greater experts on US politics than Mike Allen and Evan Thomas. This is the second of three planned instant assessments of the 2012 election. Don't blame the authors if the story they have to tell displeases you. It is accurate and might get some people to do something about the story itself.

    The media tells us that "deregulation" and "unfettered free markets" have wrecked our economy and will continue to make things worse without a heavy dose of federal regulation. But the real blame lies elsewhere. In Meltdown, best-selling author Thomas E. Woods, Jr., unearths the real causes behind the collapse of housing values and the stock market---and it turns out the culprits reside more in Washington than on Wall Street.

    Story

    I am predisposed to agree with the author's views but they are so poorly presented and the narrator is so patronizing that this book will anger more people than it converts. The views expressed are important but many readers will be driven away. One star was the least available.
