Arianna is as enthusiastic as I am about Instapundit Glenn Reynold's new book, An Army of Davids.
The book is a powerful paean to how changes in technology are empowering the little guy to take on the goliaths of Big Media and Big Government. "Small is the new big," says Reynolds....Reynolds also nails how the blogosphere has become an invaluable tool for holding the mainstream media's feet to the fire: "Where before journalists and pundits could bloviate at leisure, offering illogical analysis or citing 'facts' that were in fact false, now the Sunday morning op-eds have already been dissected on Saturday night, within hours of their appearing on newspapers' webites."
Markos and Jerome's book, Crashing the Gates, also is getting great reviews. Here's another one at Slashdot.
Gary Hart's new book, The Shield of the Cloak, is now available. He argues that instead of waging pre-emptive war in the middle east and bolstering our military machinery (the shield), we should be creating a cloak of security here at home.
Hart recognizes that terrorism is "a method of coercion that cannot be defeated by traditional military means." He shares his thoughts on how America can achieve true security -- and on revamping the role of the National Guard. There's lots of food for thought here.
