Book Reviews of Real Change: From the World That Fails to the World That Works
Book Review: good talking points, poor delivery
Summary: 3 Stars
It's really a shame that a book on such an important subject should be so dry and boring. Lots and lots of statistics: 86% of people pooled agree with this, 92% disagree with that - pages and pages of poll results. Don't get me wrong, I was as dismayed as the next person to find out that only 1 in 5 kids entering Detroit high schools actually graduates, but a lot of the other statistics I found somewhat repetitive. I got the point quite quickly. People don't like what's being done in government and we need to change it.
Newt keeps bringing up examples of what works and how he and the Republican majority made a contract with America back in the 1990's to give people what they really want. Some of the examples are appropriate, some less so. Although the "contract" was made up, many items on it were not delivered, thus we ended up with a Democratic majority (yet again) and the mess we're in today.
Good information, poor delivery, not enough results. A step in the right direction.
Summary of Real Change: From the World That Fails to the World That Works
What will take us from the world that fails to the world that works? Real change---the kind of change that happens when politicians drop their own agendas and respond to the will of the people. Newt Gingrich shows us how we can make real change a reality.Social Services & Welfare Books
