Has some very good explanations and helpful metaphors. Written in 2021, it desperately needs updating. Helpful to read along with “Number goes up”

Should be mandatory reading for every mayor, city council member, county commissioner, state legislator, governors, and everyone in any office associated with any prosecutorial or investigative function. And any citizen.

Carries on and updates “The New Hate” (2012), being written in 2023; reprises many of the themes from The New Hate and shows how Trumpism is enacting its very DNA coded nature as the cult of conservative/xenophobic Christian Nationalist tropes.

Enjoyable natural history and philosophy a la Stephen Jay Gould. Very readable.

Urgent reading on the cusp of 2024 and the coming attempt of the Trumpists to regain power and end American democracy.
