B. K. Eakman

This book is an attempt to teach critical thinking in a hyper- political environment.The book is not unbiassed. It takes an early bend to the right and keeps going. The introduction has phrases such as " Its tough to be a traditionalist, constitutionalist or even the generic conservative in America's ever more left leaning , bureaucratic political scene."The author claims that professional agitators and provocateurs infiltrate meetings and manipulate them to their leftist agenda . Eakman offers no support for her claims. Eakman cites no sources not even newspapers or pamphlets. This book makes no claim of objectivity. This books claims it has the ability to teach you how to recognize them and counter their arguments. Ity fancies itself a teaching tool. It fails at that too. I wish this book had been better written. It comes close to making sound arguments its causes but like the Brown's football teams fails at the last minute. The bad writing keeps it from achieving its goals to educate the true believer and inform those who aren't.
