More On the “Shock Doctrine”

A few weeks ago I wrote a post on an excerpt from Guardian concerning Naomi Klein’s “The Shock Doctrine”. Didn’t seem like much was happening  very much on this topic, but now it’s picking up steam as Klein is doing her promotion gigs  for her book.

Try this out: John Cusack’s interview with Klein.

Curtsey to Suspect Device. and the Zombie.

I’m happy that this book is getting notice down here in Da Swamp.

I just got my copy of Klein’s book today, and will be reading it with great interest.

Poop! I’m on hold as far as buying anything for the next month.

I really want to read her book as I am familiar with the background material, but that was long ago and they seem to have expanded it’s reach.

It’s well worth the price. See my review in The Tyee:
