Abstrak | All this could have been a cold intellectual analysis on Hertgaard's part, but he was able to keep the book very readable and it's all the more fascinating at this human level. He sips tea in 105 degree heat with a businessman in Cairo to hear that America does stand for "Democracy and Freedom," yet that he doesn't like America's stance on Israel. A cabbie in London tells him how he dislikes Texans because whatever the London landmark, they always claim to have something bigger. He finds candles for American dead in a Prague square after 9-11. A man in China wants to know if in America he could have sex with someone other than his wife. You learn over and over that America's unique strengths appeal to people everywhere, but our arrogance and the fact that we are so focused on creature comforts prevents us from seeing how our habits affect the rest of the world. |
