Xviii, 462 Pp. Black Cloth, Spine Lettered In Silver. First Printing. Fine, No Marks. Dust Jacket Priced $7.50, Lightly Worn, A Few Short Edge Tears. The Problems Of Modern World Politics Can Be Traced In Appreciable Part To The Idiocy Of The Entire Output Of Political Writers Such As Hook Who Don't Have The Slightest Grasp Of What Is Required For A Particular Government That Will Work Effectively While Focused On The Common Welfare. The Prodigious Output Of These Lemming-Like Hacks Has Been So Off-Putting To The General Citizenry That They Are Unable To Focus On Specific Issues Of Governance, Responsibility, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Fairness, Cost-Feasibility, Scientific Feasibility, Decency, Etc.- Standards Which Are Called Emotional And Unscientific By The Establishment Which Asks Us To Follow Them Loyally While They Implement Without Rational Discussion Their Own Much Lower Standards.
