Naomi Klein The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. $32.95. Naomi Klein shows that the global free market did not triumph democratically. Exposing the thinking, the money trail and the puppet strings behind the world-changing crises and wars of the last four decades, The Shock Doctrine is the gripping story of how America’s free market policies have come to dominate the world– through the exploitation of disaster-shocked people and countries.

Greer Hath a Way with Historians
In SHAKESPEARE’S WIFE Germaine Greer continues her lifelong tour de force through society’s male chauvinist and misogynist bastions. She snicks the hocks of sacred bulls and hangs up their carcasses. She subjects the crap of their entrails to the forensics of her powerful academic kitbag. Biographers’ `fraffly’ comforts of self-satisfied complacencies and patriarchal assumptions are matched against the clarity of her research through the neglected documentary litter of the past.
