An Anatomy of American Nationalism by Anatol Lieven - Reviewed by Gerald Rellick
Although a serious work of scholarship richly supported with over 800 references, the book is very readable. It is highly recommended to anyone trying to make sense of the American psyche and its current mood. Readers will find the book particularly valuable in providing insight into how America’s sense of nationalism plays into the Bush neocon ideology and the administration’s continually muddled efforts to form a workable foreign policy in the wake of 9/11.
