- Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2024The book was delivered quickly and in excellent condition.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2010Threshold, by Thom Hartmann, is terrific. The biggest challenges threatening humanity are reflected with fresh perspective. Hartmann's historical overview of the Maori culture is particularly compelling. In the U.S., government `of, by, and for the people', has been replaced by `of, by, and for' transnational corporations and the wealthy. The root of this takeover is based on two corrupt legal constructs; `Corporate personhood', and `money equals free speech'. Hartmann makes the case that restoring democracy in America depends on a public groundswell against these two feudal ideas. I've read many of Thom Hartmann's books. Threshold may be his best. The scholarship is excellent and impeccably documented. Hartmann's writing style is easy and accessible. No matter what one's cause, the root of the problem likely boils down to `Corporate Personhood' and money being treated as speech. The way to restore democracy begins with the nullification of these deeply entrenched and highly destructive ideas. Nothing much will change until public awareness reaches critical mass, and we all start pulling our oars in the same direction, away from fascism, and back toward real democracy.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2009This is one of the most important books you can read if you have children or grandchildren. To put it quite simply, we are running out of time to deal with problems that will devastate the planet. Thom Hartmann, like the prophets of old is calling for no less than a complete reordering of society, not to mention a reordering of our own souls.
Open your mind, open your heart, and open your wallet and buy this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2010Great book for people who think and try to see the liberal point of view. Definitely not for the sheep on the right who hear only Rush, Glen, and Sean's blather.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2020This is a great writer, interesting content about the political impact on the economy and other decline. It does seem to have a nationalist slant.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2021Well researched and to the point
- Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2017This is the most amazing and book by Thom, and I have read most 0f his books. This book should be read by all citizens in America
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2010A MUST READ for every American that wants to know where we are and
where we're going as a nation. Excellent short history and changes
we must make to stop our slide towards a 2nd status country.
