America is under attack as never before-not only from terrorists, but from people who provide a rationale for terrorism. Bestselling author Dinesh D'Souza takes on all of America's critics and proves them wrong as perhaps only a writer with an immigrant's understanding of this country can. D'Souza presents his case for intelligent patriotism based on an understanding of what really makes America unique in the world. Among other issues, he confronts the hallmarks of criticism of the American way -our history of slavery, colonialism and materialism. His thought provoking essay is simply presented. He defends not an idealized America, But America as it really is, and measures America not against utopia, but against the rest of the world. "This book brings a new personal tone to D'Souza's always sharp handling of ideas. There are at least two "bests" in the book: the best argument t against racial reparations. Then there's the powerful account of D'Souza's own enchantment with the America he encountered when he first came here as an immigrant from India. My Favorite D'Souza book. Read it!". Shelby Steele, author of The Content of Our Character.
