Description

For four decades Ralph Nader has been associated with the major political issues that define our our age - be it car safety, countering corporate power, increasing government accountability, or campaigning to keep the WTO in check. Truly a housesehold name in the US, and known and respected in the UK as well, Nader - as is shown in this collection of his writings - has probably contributed more to positive changes in society than pretty much any major politician. An inspirational collection of essays that both inspire and inform.
