I was surprised to discover this was written in 1995. It has aged very well and speaks presciently to the issues of our time. Thomas Sowell has unmasked the societal devastation wrought by the Globalist elite and their purported experts. From the rigging of statistics by politically captive scientists, to the warped fixations of an agenda driven media, to the particularly loathsome sophistry of activist judges, Sowell reveals for the perceptive reader “the man behind the curtain” in all his (or her!) arrogant incompetence. To be sure, this book is not on the World Economic Forum’s recommended reading list. That this marvelous book has not yet be slated for suppression and censorship is a miracle.
