Imagine if one day, a la 'The Truman Show', you woke up to find
that everything you believed was the result of a careful
manipulation of your life by someone else? What if much of what you
believed was a lie? Well, for you, that day has arrived. In an age
dominated by 'Spin', you're about to discover that the best spin
campaigns of all are the ones you never even knew about. In the
most politically incorrect book ever published in this country,
journalist Ian Wishart rounds up a herd of sacred cows, skewering
the social engineers and exposing the elites who want your taxes
and your children while they laugh all the way to the bank like
perverse Pied Pipers... Eve's Bite: Read it before they pass a law
against it... WHAT THE CRITICS SAID: "Wishart is not afraid in the
choice of his subjects: Karl Marx, Nazi propaganda techniques,
Charles Darwin & intelligent design, Richard Dawkins, the gay
rights movement, the "safe sex" campaign, abortion & trade in
body parts, the anti-smacking campaign, liberal education, the
mainstream media eugenics and islam and the threat to the west. He
managed to bring them all together and identifies the relationships
between them in a more than just compelling way. Having enjoyed a
rather liberal approach to life and society this book was most
certainly an eye-opener that made me rethink certain positions.
"The direct way in which propositions are presented helps in
creating effect. Not necessarily to convince you. But to open your
eyes to other perspectives so carefully hidden. The book reminds me
most of one of Michael Pokocky's remarks after closing
SophisticaWorld: "think for yourself." As far as I can see it is
what this book is all about: thinking for yourself and trying to
make you think for yourself again. For the sake of yourselves and
your children." - John Dierckx, The Renaissance Man "Wishart has
taken his time compiling a frighteningly well-researched book. "His
study calls to account some of the less-than-savoury elements of
not just New Zealand but the entire Western world's increasingly
liberal morals and politics. He covers abortion, teenage sexual
education, the impact of radical Islam at our doorstep,
homosexuality, genetic testing and more. "One of his concerns is
the Government's use of state education to nurture and encourage
tolerance of some of the abovementioned topics. He also muses
whether today's sexual freedom is actually as liberating as one
might think. Perhaps muse is not the right word; before you get
ready to write him off as one man with bigoted opinions, take the
time to digest the facts he presents. "His research is deep and
thorough. How many times has anyone caught themselves before making
a comment in public that may be construed as racist, sexist,
conservative or homophobic? There is an apparent undercurrent of
fear in this country but Wishart dares to speak out and speak
loudly. "As a fairly liberal thinker myself (apparently this is to
be expected as I am a Gen-Xer who has gone through the
aforementioned education system), I was shocked to find myself not
only agreeing with a lot of what Wishart says, but felt a new sense
of awakening - the fire in the belly sort of stuff - protesting,
opining and the rest. I have been compelled to mention this book at
every social occasion I have been to recently because Eve's Bite is
so deliciously full of juicy conversation starters." - Times-Age,
