We're being told by today's High Priests of Conventional Wisdom that everyone and everything in our economic cosmos necessarily revolves around one dazzling star: the corporation. This heavenly institution, the HPCW explain, has such financial and political mass that it is the optimal force for organizing and directing our society's economic affairs, including the terms of employment and production.

In the spirit of such pamphleteers as Thomas Paine; such muckrakers as Ida Tarbell; such investigators as Izzy Stone; and such storytellers as Woody Guthrie, Hightower wields a prolific pen that challenges the greedheads of Wall Street and the boneheads of Washington. Hard-hitting yet humorous, Jim's writings deliver content and attitude you won't get elsewhere.

"Thank God for Jim Hightower. Instead of leaving us stewing in anger and despair, he rallies us with stories of our own history and of our own neighbors, inspiring us to take charge of our own democratice destiny. And he leaves us laughing and thinking at the same time."
