âUnapologetically intellectual, relentlessly original.â â Naomi Klein

FROM AMERICA'S MOST INFLUENTIAL POLITICAL BLOG, A GRAND SURVEY OF THE WORLD SINCE 9/11.

Tomdispatch.com has rapidly established itself as the go-to blog for contemporary US politics, and is the favored web platform for a range of radical commentators, from Noam Chomsky to Howard Zinn. Its powerful, no-holds-barred features draw a huge response from the public and resonate throughout the global media, acting as a touchpaper for debates which subsequently become headline news. This comprehensive volume offers readers a chance to catch up on some of the finest political analysis of our age, including trenchant accounts of the two Bush administrations; catastrophic imperial adventures in Afghanistan and Iraq; GuantÃnamo, extraordinary rendition and its apologists; and Hurricane Katrina, global warming, black gold and the rise of Hugo ChÃvez.

Introduced, arranged and with additional commentary throughout by the blogâs founder Tom Engelhardt, The World According to Tomdispatch is the essential primer for anyone seeking illumination and guidance along the highways and byways of our post-9/11 world. 

Contributors: John Brown, Ira Chernos, Noam Chomsky, Michael Klare, Juan Cole, Mike Davis, Mark Danner, Greg Grandin, Adam Hochschild, Arlie Hochschild, Dahr Jamail, Chalmers Johnson, Ann Jones, Bill McKibben, Rasha Salti, Jonathan Schell, Rebecca Solnit, Nick Turse, Behzad Yaghmaian.
