Libro que se ha leído y que no tiene un aspecto nuevo, pero que está en un estado excelente. No hay desperfectos visibles en la tapa y se incluye sobrecubierta, si procede, para las tapas duras. Todas las páginas están en perfecto estado, sin arrugas ni roturas y no falta ninguna. El texto no está subrayado ni resaltado de forma alguna, y no hay anotaciones en los márgenes.

Reviews
Russomannoe(tm)s layering of these quotes has a cumulative power that brings home the story of the Bush era in a fresh and often terrifying way. What follows is more than superb source material for future historians; ite(tm)s a compelling history in its own right, of interest to anyone who cares about a twisted time in the life of the nation., Tortured Logic on one level shows the extent to which the administration of George W. Bush telegraphed its intentions every time its officials opened their mouths. On a completely different level, the reader will be shocked by the extent to which we were manipulated by those very same words. Historians will love this 'primary source' view into the Bush years. Other readers, like myself, who fought the administration for so many years, will find the hair on the back of their necks rising as they read just how diabolical the Bush administration was., Russomanno's layering of these quotes has a cumulative power that brings home the story of the Bush era in a fresh and often terrifying way.

Synopsis
It is hard to imagine a more Orwellian presidency than George W. Bush's, according to Joseph Russomanno, who demonstrates how a form of Newspeak became thoroughly entrenched in the historical record. Bush and his team, especially Vice President Dick Cheney, neither respected the Constitution nor the separation of powers. Instead, the Bush administration deliberately and explicitly violated the law in ways that will continue to be felt for generations. Tortured Logic shows us, in the words of the participants themselves, how this egregious abuse of power came about. Presenting quotations by Bush, Cheney, and others--including our leading journalists--in a narrative sequence in the book's first half, Russomanno allows the story of Bush's imperial presidency to unfold . In the second half, he focuses on the war presidency, including the way the Iraq War was sold to the American people and the methods used to "legalize" torture, or at least to protect its proponents from prosecution. By having the principal actors speak for themselves, Tortured Logic provides a unique critique of the Bush administration., It is hard to imagine a more Orwellian presidency than George W. Bush's, according to Joseph Russomanno, who demonstrates how a form of Newspeak became thoroughly entrenched in the historical record.
