Even though it's America-centred, this is still an important book for Aussies and anyone else living in a first-world nation. It exposes some of the hypocricies of our political system and our society. For example, politicians who have millions of dollars invested in earth-destroying companies, who accept "donations" from these companies to their election campaigns, on the understanding that once they are in office, they will do everything in their power to make it easy for these corporations to continue to "build their business" no matter what the social and ecological cost to the planet. This book encourages people to "get up, stand up" and make their voices heard.

Mike Moore is a 'hero' of mine, and comes from the next town over from where I grew up and lived until I moved to Australia. I've wanted to read this book for a long time so was pleased to find it at the Australian BXing Convention.

RELEASE NOTES:
I enjoyed this book and hope it finds more readers. I thought about leaving it at a politicians place, but I'd hate to give them any ideas as there are a lot political stuff/crap in this book that we don't want to have in Australia. Ever!
