The Art of Political War and Other Radical Pursuits

De: David Horowitz

Narrado por: Jeff Riggenbach

Politics is war, but in America, one side is doing all the shooting - the liberals. Shell-shocked conservatives blame their failures on the media or on unscrupulous opponents, but they refuse to name the real culprit: themselves.

In a book that will shatter the complacency of establishment conservatives, David Horowitz shows how Bill Clinton's generation, having mastered the art of political war, has spent the last 10 years clobbering the conservatives in and out of government. The best-selling author of Hating Whitey and Other Progressive Causes has the strategy to fight back.

Excellent treatise on the modern face of war.

if you want to know where the cold war has gone and how it continues in full force, read this book!

Still relevant in 2019

Insightful, articulate, timely. Must reading in order to understand today's political war wadged by the left.

LISTEN UP

This book covers how the arena of politics has turned into a war for the freedom of America and saving democracy.

Enlighteningly firm against bullying & ad hominems

Again some very sharp analyses by Horowitz. Easy to listen to as narrated by Jeff Riggenbach.
I have to say I don't really enjoy the 'bundled essay' format for audiobooks, because you can't see differences in fonts and white spaces, which help navigate readers. Sub titles and other headers are not visible, thereby sounding like (sometimes) misplaced repetitions. This is a minor issue, and also personal preference.

I still went on to yet another title by Horowitz after this book, for I can learn a lot from the author's firm stance against any kind of bullying or ad hominem attack, even more than from his keen analysis. For instance, he includes someone's letter to him in which he is accused of something horrible, AND he includes his response. If I am ever as agressively and - at the same time - ridiculously accused as the author, this response letter will teach me not to be cowed into a false sense of guilt, but how to handle it assertively and decisively. Love that!
