Críticas:
'Bovard...looks at the post-September 11 policies and actions of the government and finds them sorely lacking...Meticulously documented...May well leave readers as angry as its author.' - Publishers Weekly

'If you want to know what is really going on in President Bush's War on Terror, read Terrorism and Tyranny: Trampling Freedom, Justice, and Peace to Rid the World of Evil, by James Bovard. What is so valuable about Bovard's work is that it is just plain, fact-based, footnoted reporting. He is not a polemicist, and you will find no shrill arguments, no straw men, no rants, no name-calling such as you find in most of the quickie political books that people grind out these days. Instead, you get a sober recitation of the facts set within a philosophical framework that exactly matches that of the Founding Fathers.' - Charley Reese, Syndicated Columnist

'The controversial author of Feeling Your Pain takes on Bush, the war with Iraq and the official drive to protect 'the homeland.' - The Washington Post

'Never content to follow the mass media and focus solely on the minutiae of an important question, Bovard explores and analyzes the bigger picture...namely how Americans let themselves get dragged into what appears to be a never-ending war on terror, how politicians have used fear of terrorism to dangerously expand the power of the federal government, and the extremely serious threat to life, liberty, and property that the exercise of this power poses to citizens of the United States and to those of other countries.' - Jim Grichar, Former CIA Analyst

'James Bovard has become the roving inspector general of the modern State.' - Wall Street Journal

'Bovard is Washington's most hated truth-teller.' - Orange County Register

'Bovard is...a one-man truth squad who is more than a match for legions of protectionists in American government and industry'. - George Will, Washington Post Columnist

'...the most important book since 9/11...Anyone interested in the War on Terrorism must read James Bovard's newest book...He has constructed with precision and scholarly excellence a narrative of all that Bush has done since 9/11 in the name of fighting terror.' - www.antiwar.com

'...a concise and accurate chronicle of what happened and what could happen to our freedom as a result of excessive federal government power.' - Jim Grichar, LewRockwell.com

'Meticulously documented from contemporary news accounts, this rant against Bush's 'aura of righteousness' may well leave readers as angry as its author.' - Publishers Weekly

'No one is spared in Bovard's merciless review of our spectacularly unsuccessful war on terrorism.' - Justin Raimondo, American Conservative

'It is rare to read such a well-documented study that flows so smoothly....Terrorism and Tyranny is a timely, troubling book, exhaustively and impeccably researched and documented. One need not agree with all Mr. Bovard's conclusions or arguments to welcome it as an important, indeed essential, guide to the complex issues with which we must now grapple.' - Martin Sieff, Washington Times
Reseña del editor:
'The war on terrorism is the first political growth industry of the new Millennium' - so begins Bovard's provocative and unrelenting examination of the Bush administration and its motives for prosecuting a war on Iraq that was wildly unpopular in the United States as well as throughout much of the world. Bovard is one of Washington's most controversial journalists, known for the searchlight he has shone on the trampling of civil liberties and privacy by successive US administrations. In this, his latest book, he tells a grisly story of the toll that the 'war on terrorism' is taking - from airport security follies that protect no one, to increased surveillance of individuals and skyrocketing numbers of detainees. In so doing, he reveals some fascinating insights into the US's coping mechanisms when under threat. His uncompromising and impassioned stance against a state that tramples personal freedoms and ignores the wishes of its citizens will strike a chord with many.
