Mission Unaccomplished: TomDispatch Interviews with American Iconoclasts and DissentersA series of provocative and candid interviews with some of the iconoclastic thinkers - and activists - of our time. These long-form conversations with Howard Zinn, Chalmers Johnson, Cindy Sheehan, Juan Cole, Mike Davis, Mark Danner, Barbara Ehrenreich, James Carroll, Katrina vanden Heuvel, Andrew Bacevich and Ann Wright, focus on the Bush administration's imperial dreams and misguided actions. They suggest new ways to frame American global policy, while catching the white heat of our moment. This is a vivid, original chronicle of our troubling times. To sample typical interviews from Mission Unaccomplished, check out: Chalmers Johnson: Cold Warrior in a Strange Land (part 1) Chalmers Johnson: Whatever Happened to Congress? (part 2) Barbara Ehrenreich: A Guided Tour of Class in America Praise for Mission Unaccomplished: Jonathan Schell: "At a time when the mainstream media leave out half of what the public needs to know, while at the same time purveying oceans of official nonsense, the public needs an alternative source of news. For years now, Tom Engelhardt's Tomdispatch has been that for me. He is my mainstream. Now he presents a series of brilliant interviews he has done for the site, and they, taken as a whole, themselves form a searching chronicle of our time." Adam Hochschild: "Tomdispatch.com is one of the wonders of the Internet. For those of us who prefer books and magazines to the Web, this blog is more intelligent than almost all magazines. For anyone who has missed out on this marvel until now - or for we aficionados who want to re-savor some of its high points - this book of interviews is essential reading." |
