"Wow, I'm an American!" is written by Harvard-trained psychiatrist
and best-selling author Peter R. Breggin, MD. In a bold new
approach to the lives of our Founders and the principles they
embraced, this book shows how the same ideals that inspired the
American Revolution and the Declaration of Independence can
motivate and guide us to live happier and more satisfying lives.
Wow, I'm an American! demonstrates for the first time how the
Founding principles of freedom, responsibility, gratitude, and love
apply not only to government policy but also to the everyday
challenges in our personal lives. At a time when the Constitution
and traditional American values are threatened as never before,
Wow, I'm an American! revitalizes the American spirit. Founders
like George Washington, John and Abigail Adams, Benjamin Franklin,
Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams, James Madison and Benjamin Rush
built this countrys government and their personal lives around the
inalienable rights to life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of
happiness. Our great political documents like the Bill of Rights
express the integrity of their overall approach to life. No other
book so imaginatively captures the essence of what makes America
great, while showing us how to apply these principles to everyday
living. Written in the spirit that simplicity is the test of truth
and usefulness, Dr. Breggin's words can help the entire family to
understand and to live like our Founding heroes. ] WILLIAM GLASSER,
MD, PSYCHIATRIST AND AUTHOR: "Takes a fresh new approach to
American history that will give you a deeper appreciation of the
people who founded our nation and how to apply their beliefs to
your everyday life." ] BARRY STRAUSS, PH.D., CORNELL UNIVERSITY
PROFESSOR OF HISTORY: "As a historian, I admire Peter Breggin's
insight into the American past. If you want one book that explains
for the whole family what America is all about, look no further." ]
CHRISTOPHER HARPER, TEMPLE UNIVERSITY ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF
JOURNALISM AND FORMER WASHINGTON CORRESPOND FOR NEWSWEEK: Peter
Breggins book describes the magic and majesty of what the founders
did for us. An inspiring book that my family, including my
16-year-old daughter, enjoyed.
