Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Despite the human race's extraordinary capacity for invention and progress, we clearly have a millennia-old blind spot in one all-important area: We don't understand evil--what it is, how it works, and why it so routinely and effortlessly ruins our lives. Put another way, we don't understand ourselves. David Kupelian, the best-selling author of The Marketing of Evil, probes the ancient question of evil through amodern journalist's eye, once again demonstrating his uncanny knack for demystifying complex, elusive, and intimidating subjects with fresh insights into the hidden mechanisms of seduction, corruption, and power politics. Diving into today's most electrifying news stories--from terrorism and school shootings to high-profile sex scandals and political dysfunction--Kupelian explores such profoundly troubling questions as: How does terrorism really work? Why are New Age religions becoming so popular? Why do so many celebrities who have it all--talent, fame, good looks, wealth, adoration--end up self-destructing? Why are big lies more believable than little ones? Why are boys doing worse in school today than girls? Why do we treat mental, emotional, and spiritual problems, like anger and depression, with drugs? Here's the good news: Once we really understand how evil works--not just in the disasters and mega-crimes that dominate the headlines, but in our own lives as well--evil actually loses much of its power over us, and the way out becomes more clear. Thus, How Evil Works bears a powerful message of genuine hope.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL HAS BECOME AMERICA THE BIZARE. Government openly defies the law, Christians are prosecuted as criminals, children transition to the opposite sex, the president supports our enemies--and 130 million Americans depend on mind-altering substances just to get through life. Turbocharged by the Obama presidency, long-coalescing forces of the political and cultural Left are bringing about their much-heralded fundamental transformation of America. That much everyone knows. But this revolution is also causing a fundamental transformation of Americans--in profoundly negative ways. In The Snapping of the American Mind, veteran journalist and bestselling author David Kupelian shows how the progressive Left--which today dominates America's key institutions, from the news and entertainment media, to education, to government itself--is accomplishing much more than just enlarging government, redistributing wealth, and de-Christianizing the culture. With the Left's wild celebration of sexual anarchy, its intimidating culture of political correctness, and its incomprehension of the fundamental sacredness of human life, it is also, whether intentionally or not, promoting widespread dependency, debauchery, family breakdown, crime, corruption, addiction, despair, and suicide. Surveying this growing chaos in American society, Kupelian exposes both the utopian revolutionaries and their extraordinary methods that have turned America's most cherished values literally upside down--to the point that madness is celebrated and normality demonized.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In this groundbreaking and meticulously researched book, David Kupelian peels back the veil of marketing-induced deception to reveal exactly when, where, how and especially why Americans bought into the lies that now threaten the future of the country. For example, few of us realize that the widely revered father of the sexual revolution has been irrefutably exposed as a full-fledged sexual psychopath who encouraged pedophilia. Or that giant corporations voraciously competing for America's $150 billion teen market routinely infiltrate young people's social groups to find out how better to lead children into ever more debauched forms of authentic self-expression. Likewise, most of us mistakenly believe the abortion rights and gay rights movements were spontaneous, grassroots uprisings of neglected or persecuted minorities wanting to breathe free. Few people realize America was actually sold on abortion thanks to an audacious public relations campaign that relied on fantastic lies and fabrications. Or that the gay rights movement―which transformed America's former view of homosexuals as self-destructive human beings into their current status as victims and cultural heroes―faithfully followed an in-depth, phased plan laid out by professional Harvard-trained marketers. No quarter is given in this riveting, insightful exploration of how lies, both subtle and outrageous, are packaged as truth. From the federal government to the public school system to the news media to the hidden creators of youth culture, nothing is exempt from the thousand-watt spotlight of Kupelian's journalistic inquiry.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Millions of Americans today embrace ideas and behaviors that would have horrified all previous generations. Why? Why have thousands of years of Judeo-Christian moral standards - the very foundation of Western Civilization - been demonized and criminalized? Why are America's families disintegrating and her schools and colleges poisoning the minds of our youth? Why is our culture becoming ever more bizarre, corrupt, degraded and deranged? Why are 3,000 innocent American children aborted daily? In this widely acclaimed expos , veteran journalist David Kupelian reveals the brilliant marketing strategies that have turned America upside down: Within the space of our lifetime, much of what Americans once almost universally abhorred has been packaged, perfumed, gift-wrapped, and sold to us as though it had great value. By skillfully playing on our deeply felt national values of fairness, generosity, and tolerance, these marketers have persuaded us to embrace as enlightened and noble that which every other generation has regarded as grossly self-destructive? In a word, evil. Now, in a new and expanded edition of his culture-war classic, David Kupelian continues to expose the ever-more audacious marketing campaigns and grand deceptions that threaten the very future of America. NEW EXPANDED EDITION OF THE CLASSIC BESTSELLER David Kupelian is one of the most thought-provoking and iconoclastic writers I know. -- SEAN HANNITY Every parent in America needs to read this book. David Kupelian skillfully exposes the secular Left's rotten-apple peddlers in devastating detail. -- MICHELLE MALKIN If you really want to understand the adversary's thinking and help turn the tide of battle, read this book -- DAVID LIMBAUGH.…
