"Impassioned, hugely informative, wonderfully controversial, and scary as hell." -- John le Carr "Bold and brilliantly conceived . . . Klein may well have revealed the master narrative of our time." -- William S. Kowinski, San Francisco Chronicle "This is a brilliant book, one of the most important I have read in a long time." -- Howard Zinn "Klein provides a rich description of the political machinations required to force unsavory economic policies on resisting countries and of the human toll. She paints a disturbing portrait of hubris, not only on the part of Friedman but also of those who adopted his doctrines, sometimes to pursue more corporatist objectives." -- Joseph E. Stiglitz, The New York Times Book Review "A brilliant, brave, and terrifying book. It's nothing less than the secret history of what we call the 'free market.' It should be compulsory reading." -- Arundhati Roy "Pulls the curtain back on free-market myths and exposes the forces that are really driving our economy . . . Klein's book is powerful and prophetic. . . . A brilliant dissection." -- Arianna Huffington, The Huffington Post "Naomi Klein is one of the most important new voices in American journalism today." -- Seymour M.

Synopsis
In this groundbreaking alternative history of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free-market economic revolution, Naomi Klein challenges the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory. From Chile in 1973 to Iraq today, Klein shows how Friedman and his followers have repeatedly harnessed terrible shocks and violence to implement their radical policies. As John Gray wrote in The Guardian, "There are very few books that really help us understand the present. The Shock Doctrine is one of those books.", The bestselling author of No Logo shows how the global "free market" has exploited crises and shock for three decades, from Chile to Iraq In her groundbreaking reporting, Naomi Klein introduced the term "disaster capitalism." Whether covering Baghdad after the U.S. occupation, Sri Lanka in the wake of the tsunami, or New Orleans post-Katrina, she witnessed something remarkably similar. People still reeling from catastrophe were being hit again, this time with economic "shock treatment," losing their land and homes to rapid-fire corporate makeovers. The Shock Doctrine retells the story of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free market economic revolution. In contrast to the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory, Klein shows how it has exploited moments of shock and extreme violence in order to implement its economic policies in so many parts of the world from Latin America and Eastern Europe to South Africa, Russia, and Iraq. At the core of disaster capitalism is the use of cataclysmic events to advance radical privatization combined with the privatization of the disaster response itself. Klein argues that by capitalizing on crises, created by nature or war, the disaster capitalism complex now exists as a booming new economy, and is the violent culmination of a radical economic project that has been incubating for fifty years., The bestselling author of No Logo shows how the global "free market" has exploited crises and shock for three decades from Chile to Iraq

    Great transaction. I've only traded with them a couple of times, but they seem consistent. The quality of the book was better than described, incredible packing, with next day shipping. I will deal with On Time Books again in the near future. Great value for the money, many thanks.

    SOLID (STAND UP) SELLER. - RESPONDED TO MESSAGE. - DELIVERY TIME GOOD. THINGS GO WRONG IN LIFE. BUT. THE ITEM DAMAGED in shipping was 1 out of 4 books in package. Rest were OK. SELLER REFUNDED the price of the dammaged book and made things right. Responded within 24 hours. Did the right thing. Would use again if I needed anything. FULL REFUND FOR THE DAMMAGED BOOK. All pictured books seemed acurate. If not for the damage the value would have been great.
