Amazon.com: Lefties Are In Their Right Minds (9780578007823): Beth K. Lamont, Re-Issuing works of Corliss Lamont: Books

Review

This newly issued work brings to light historical information regarding the original ideal of Socialism, and how subsequent efforts and world events affected its development and its potential to spread like wildfire. This is a worthwhile read, written from the perspective of an insider who benefited from being a child of Wall Street and who learned early on of its harm to working class Americans. --Description by author.

Product Description

With a re-introduction to Corliss Lamont's 1939 book, You Might Like Socialism, Lefties Are In Their Right Minds includes comments and updating on the original 1939 work, contrasting the sociopolitical situation then with the sociopolitical situation now, with a special emphasis on economics and the needs of ordinary people.

The book examines the subjects of left-of-center thought, democracy, centralized economic planning, the economic causes of war and the cure for war, radicalism, humanism, and how everyone can live well in these financially troubling times.

Half-Moon Foundation, Inc., the book's publisher, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the state of New York in 1979 that was formed by the late Dr. Corliss Lamont, author, philosopher, philanthropist, poet, and educator, to promote enduring international peace, support for the United Nations, the conservation of our country's natural environment, and to safeguard and extend civil liberties as guaranteed under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
