Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Everything You Know Is Wrong follows the underground classic You Are Being Lied To--a provocative anti-media book which proclaimed, "once you read [it] you'll wonder if anything you know is right". Everything is an excellent collection by any standards. As incendiary as its precursor it contains a number of highly incisive articles, which, despite coming from the usual suspects, manage to inform and disturb in fairly equal measure. Naomi Klein, of No Logo fame, reminds us that the one lesson that must be learned from the atrocity that was 9/11 is that it is "the boring stuff that binds us all together [that is] the foundation of all our future security". Respected American historian Howard Zinn (writer of the bestselling A People's History of the United States) provides a chapter on the forgotten Colorado Coal Strike. Peter Breggin (Toxic Psychiatry) reminds us of the scandal surrounding the psychiatric drugging of children to enforce highly questionable behavioural norms. There are challenging essays concerning TV (and how bad it is for us), about the (lack of) youth violence, about US foreign policy and much more besides. This is a big, baggy, coffee-table book of iconoclastic journalism. And it is certainly worth the eye-popping ride. --Mark Thwaite

Product Description
Bringing together an amazing group of investigative journalists, researchers, insiders, dissidents and academics, the editor of You Are Being Lied To offers this new collection of hard, documented evidence to reveal the lies surrounding the most powerful institutions and controversial topics in the world. Among the revelations are insights into antidepressants, youth violence, the International Monetary Fund and the government's foreknowledge of the September 11 attacks. Featuring rare documents and photos, this book is set to become an underground bestseller.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Cassarole Of Free Thinking, 17 April 2005
I don't usually bother with reviews but some of the previous ones of this book have been so vacuous (one reader criticising the book as being too big)I have been prompted to write some sort of rebutal.
Overall the book is a stimulating and illuminating collection on writing. It's central theme is around free thinking and challenging many populist beliefs. Sure it's controversial in places and sure there are many essays which I disagree with but all are well written and passionate. So, if you are someone who struggles to read opinions contrary to your own steer clear. The more free thinking of you should enjoy this book, which is essentially liberal of nature rather than leftist or indeed conservative.
As with any collected works there are always going to be parts that are worth skipping over but if you want to live in a world where people make up their own minds and don't just digest the propaganda that is shrink wrapped and served to them then you should find ther majority of the book entertaining.
In a nutshell, if you agreee with the Voltaire sentiment of "I despise what you say but defend your right to say it" then you will get great pleasure from this collection. Conversely, Fox News viewers need not apply.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the best, 20 Jul 2002
By A Customer
Here is a fine book for Summer reading. Literally dozens and dozens of well written articles covering hot topics in the news. But here's the rub, not only do the articles cover 911, the Vatican scandals, money laundering, Mad Cow, and many other topics, they expose in a well documented manner the other sides of the stories so often lost in the main stream press. Well worth a read and the large format book looks great on the tea table too.

2.0 out of 5 stars As bad as the previous one, 31 Mar 2003
By A Customer
As with the first "everything you know is wrong" this books takes up the mantle of exposing lies, fraud and deception. As with the first book, it takes on too many subjects (from waco to child rearing and CIA drug spies) and covers them all badly. As such, it's pretty much just good as a standard coffee table book. Nothing more. Shallow reading.
