"Will Rogers once said that the problem in America isn't so much
what people don't know; the problem is what people think they know
that just ain't so." -Professor Thomas E. Woods Most Americans
trust that their history professors and high school teachers will
give students honest and accurate information. In a shocking new
book, The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History,
historian Professor Thomas E. Woods, Jr. makes it quite clear that
liberal professors have misinformed our children for generations.
Woods takes on the most controversial moments of American history
and exposes how history books are merely a series of cliches
drafted by academics who are heavily biased against God, democracy,
patriotism, capitalism and most American family values. Woods takes
aim at the high school and college textbooks that promote morally
neutral, politically correct, multi-cultural distortions of our
nation's past and provides the real history of our country's
origins, founders, principles, successes, and failures. Woods
reveals the truth behind gross misinterpretations including: MYTH:
The First Amendment prohibits school prayer FACT: When federal
courts strike down religious expression in the states, they are
willfully perverting the policy of what the Framers of the First
Amendment intended: complete federal nonintervention in religious
issues MYTH: The New Deal created great prosperity FACT:
Public-sector jobs "created" by New Deal spending programs either
simply displaced or actually destroyed private-sector jobs. MYTH:
What the Supreme Court says, goes FACT: Neither Thomas Jefferson
nor the drafters of the Constitution envisioned the power the
federal courts routinely exercise over the states and the people.
From the real American "revolutionaries" to the reality of labor
unions, The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History, is all
you need for the truth about America-objective and unvarnished.
A NATIONAL BESTSELLER, now with a new introduction! In clear,
no-nonsense terms, Woods explains what led up to the 2008 economic
crisis, who was really to blame, and the dangers of government
bailouts. Includes a foreword by Ron Paul.
Think it's just judges who are trampling on the Constitution? Think
again.
The fact is that government officials long ago rejected the idea
that the Constitution possesses a fixed meaning limiting the U.S.
government's power. Going right to the scenes of the crimes,
bestselling authors Thomas E. Woods Jr. and Kevin R. C. Gutzman
dissect twelve of the most egregious assaults on the Constitution.
In "Who Killed the Constitution?" Woods and Gutzman:
- REVEAL the federal government's "great gold robbery"-the flagrant
assault on the Constitution you never heard about in history
class
- DESTROY the phony case for presidential war power
- EXPOSE how the federal government has actively discriminated to
end . . . discrimination
"Who Killed the Constitution?" is a rallying cry for Americans
outraged by a government run amok and a warning to take heed before
we lose the liberties we are truly entitled to.
"If you want to know why the federal government regulates the air
you breathe, the water you drink, and the words you speak, read
"Who Killed the Constitution?" . . . When the history of these
unfree times is written, Tom Woods's and Kevin Gutzman's fearless
work will be recognized as the standard against which all others
are measured."
-Judge Andrew Napolitano, Fox News senior judicial analyst and
bestselling author of "The Constitution in Exile"
"It's about time someone shouted out that the emperor has no
clothes."
-Kirkpatrick Sale, director of the Middlebury Institute and author
of Human Scale

This remarkable piece of history will change the way you look at
American politics. It shows that the corruption of American
"conservatism" began long before George W. Bush ballooned the
budget and asserted dictatorial rights over the country and the
world. The American Right long ago slid into the abyss. Betrayal of
the American Right is the full story, and the author is none other
than Murray N. Rothbard, who witnessed it all first hand. He tells
his own story and reveals that machinations behind the subversion
of an anti-state movement into one that cheers statism of the worst
sort. The book was written in the mid-1970s and is only now
published for the first time. Each time a prospective publisher
promised to go ahead, the deal fell through. Even so, it has been
privately circulated for the 30 years since it was written - and
everyone lucky enough to own a copy of the manuscript knew he had a
treasure. People who have read it swear that it is the best account
ever how the old right was subverted to become a propaganda branch
of the state, not just recently but fifty years ago. So Rothbard's
account is not only a critical historical document; it also has
explosive explanatory power.
The Church and the Market is a vigorous and lively defense of the
market economy and a withering attack on all forms of state
intervention. It covers labor unions, monopoly, money and banking,
business cycles, interest, usury, and much more. Although it makes
a particular point of noting the moral arguments of the market
economy and that Catholics are of course perfectly at liberty to
support it, its audience is much broader than Catholics alone.
Readers of all religious traditions and none at all have praised
The Church and the Market, first-place winner in the 2006 Templeton
Enterprise Awards, as one of the most compelling and persuasive
defenses of capitalism against its critics ever written.

This is a defense of the earlier, nihilist interpretation (NI) of
the Madhyamaka against some of the leading non-nihilist
interpretations (NNI) that have arisen to challenge it in recent
times.
