Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph

Of course, it is an elegant, insightful and thoroughly researched masterpiece on the most important issues of life. You can't go through it just once, it's meant to be long lasting.

The most accurate definition of Leftism ever given.

It's non-fiction

How to improve the world, one good person at a time

If I had to recommend just one book about politics, values and how the world works, I'd recommend this one.

Prager's gift for clarity makes heavy and complicated topics surprisingly easy to read and understand.
Most people coast through life without giving much thought to issues of this book, if they all read it, none of them will ever be the same.

This is an eye opener like non other, backed with 400 footnotes, it's the Best Hope to create informed citizenry and improve the world, one good person at a time.

Due to the books significance in both content & research I purchsed the book after I listened to the audio. This book is reference material I will keep returning to.

Melanie Phillip's "A World Turned Upside Down." both books identify Islam & the Left as a religion and a threat to the survival of America and The West, however Melanie comes to the same conclusions from a different angle. She sees the Left's dogma as anti-enlightenment & she does not come to American values as the solution as does Dennis. Both books are outstanding & must reads in order to understand the great forces destroying Western values & The West.

Why the West needs American values in order for liberty to prevail

This book would have been perfect if Dennis read it himself.

This was a view into why the Left and Muslim Extremist and why they believe as they do. It is enlightening to me to understand why good people on all sides of the political aisle view the world as they do.

Prager's ideology and the insight to the history of America was delightful. Prager covers American values that are powerful.

The overall story.

I like being read to.

Yes!

I had my sword engraved with the "American Trinity"

yes-lot of info, facts to absorb

Human beings, left to their own devices,without sound moral consensus or faith based foundations,at the very least a higher power, become creatures of immense capacity for self-indulgence,reduced creativity,and loss of uniqueness intended for mankind as part of the purpose and hope in Creation.

Easy to get lost reading a long book-audio narrative kept my interest.

Wanted to get to finish, but needed breaks to process info.

Listened to on car trip-stll found engrossing.

Dennis observes and explains the political and ideological divides in today's American society with clarity and conciseness without any ad hominem attacks or offensive language at all. He is diligent to appeal to reason and logic with a clear understanding that both sides of an ideology have a deep love for America, and often for each other, especially within families such as his own. He examines the intentions and the results of those intentions from a mature and experienced, end-to-end viewpoint. A very thorough, well thought out, evenhanded, fair and balanced discussion about timeless truths and the character of human kind that reinforces America's founding father's reasons for the construction of a miraculous government of check and balances. Dennis focuses a lot of attention on understanding the difference between good and evil and the need to acknowledge this eternal truth.

Clarification of the difference between goodness and innocence when discribing children and humans in general.

America's great divide

Well worth the time for developement of understanding the world's ideologies today.

Eye Opening Information.

This book helped me understand the difference between the Left and the Right.

All in our nation who struggle to understand the obvious fall of our culture and try to understand the mindset and attitudes of those who are 'remaking it'.will know the sea of books on this subject.though there are many good ones, most do not reach to the first principles needed to understand an attitude and philosophy that is absent from ones mind and heart personaly.This is one of only a few that I have found that trully lays out these first principles..[george rochs'a world without heroes' and all of g.k. chesterton are a few].I highly recommend this book as well as his book on happiness....Enjoy fellow Americans and brothers and sisters under our Father.

Yes, the conservatives would love it and the "leftists" desperately need it.

Prager doesn't just give his views, he backs up each point with hard facts and examples.

Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it. Or - So you think your elitists are smarter than all those elitists who've tried collectivism before?

What's the use? Conservatives already know and the leftists will hide their eyes and cover their ears... again.

He is very logical and doesn't name call.
