About this product

Product Information

Pilger tackles the injustices and double standards inherent in the politics of globalization and exposes the terrible truth behind the power and wealth of states and corporations John Pilger is one of the world's renowned investigative journalists and documentary filmmakers. In this classic book, with an updated introduction, he reveals the secrets and illusions of modern imperialism. Beginning with Indonesia, he shows how General Suharto's bloody seizure of power in the 1960s was part of a western design to impose a "global economy" on Asia. A million Indonesians died as the price for being the World Bank's "model pupil." In a shocking chapter on Iraq, he delineates the true nature of the West's war against the people of that country. And he dissects, piece by piece, the propaganda of the 'war on terror' to expose its Orwellian truth. Finally, he looks behind the picture-postcard image of his homeland, Australia, to illuminate an enduring legacy of imperialism: the subjugation of the First Australians. Now with a new introduction, this remains one of the most shocking investigations of contemporary power.

Reviews
"John Pilger's work has been a beacon of light in often dark times. The realities he has brought to light have been a revelation, over and over again, and his courage and insight a constant inspiration."--Noam Chomsky "What makes John Pilger a truly great journalist is his conscience and bravery."--Martha Gellhorn From the Hardcover edition., "John Pilger's work has been a beacon of light in often dark times. The realities he has brought to light have been a revelation, over and over again, and his courage and insight a constant inspiration." --Noam Chomsky "What makes John Pilger a truly great journalist is his conscience and bravery." --Martha Gellhorn "John Pilger is fearless. He unearths, with steely attention to facts, the filthy truth, and tells it as it is. I salute him." --Harold Pinter "Surely the most outstanding journalist in the world today." -- Guardian "Pilger [has a] gift for finding the image, the instant, that reveals all. He is a photographer using words instead of a camera." --Salman Rushdie "A first-rate dissident journalist." --Robert Hughes "Pilger is unique not just for his undimmed anger but also for the sharpness of his focus, the range of targets that he chooses and the meticulous precision with which he hits them--often with their own words." -- New Internationalist "[Pilger's essays] are all empirical, angry and well-referenced; they illustrate his essential argument that the imperial power wielded by rich states and multinational corporations, led by the US, is far more destructive than any terrorist organization." -- New Scientist "Pilger and others have helped expose the realist myth of impersonal laws governing actions of states. They rake the muck on which the power and wealth of states and corporations are founded, and the stench is awesome." -- Irish Times "It is harder to condescend away all that cogent argument and still more that clearly marshalled chapter and verse: this is a book to spoil any westerner's weekend." -- Scotsman "The issues Pilger addresses are fundamental to any notions we have of establishing genuine international justice and democracy, and this book should be compulsory reading for all." -- Big Issue "Despite decades of familiarity with the terrors of war, Pilger's courage in speaking out remains undimmed." -- Scotland on Sunday, Praise for John Pilger: "John Pilger's work has been a beacon of light in often dark times. The realities he has brought to light have been a revelation, over and over again, and his courage and insight a constant inspiration." --Noam Chomsky "What makes John Pilger a truly great journalist is his conscience and bravery." --Martha Gellhorn "John Pilger is fearless. He unearths, with steely attention to facts, the filthy truth, and tells it as it is. I salute him." --Harold Pinter "Surely the most outstanding journalist in the world today." -- Guardian "Pilger [has a] gift for finding the image, the instant, that reveals all.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
