New Twist Ad Hominem

In a brilliant tour de force, Jones demonstrates that while the ad hominem may be a fallacy when used right off the bat, it is a beautiful tool for debunking and explaining what would otherwise be an inexplainable intellectual theory with a fatal flaw. In otherwords, while it may be true that Keynes may be right about economics despite his disgusting sexual mores, it makes even better sense (given that one has already accepted or proven Keynes to be wrong about economics) to explain his theories as "rationalized homosexuality transferred to economics". Thus, Keynes, the consummate intellectual and debauched homo, would of course denigrate savings with the attitude, "in the long run, we are all dead anyway". What else would a physically fruitless sexual being propose? The only flaw I can find in Jones argument is that perhaps, given his own worldview, God might have used unsavory characters to achieve unique insights into reality in order to aid His people and keep them from having to suffer into that particular truth. While I took umbrage at his chapter on Luther, finding it rather trite in the sense that even most modern Catholics admit that Luther had a true spiritual experience, I highly enjoyed this book. It was eyeopening.

Exposing Modernism and its Lies - a superbly written expose'

I will not go on attempting to explain how excellent E. Michael Jones' books are. Read them for yourself - and understand that his writing style and thought provoking content are above anything out there that speaks to the current culture "war" and the decline of Western Civilization. His work is detailed, poignant and sincere. I recommend this, and all of his writings to anyone who wishes to see beyond the standard set of garbage that is taught about modern culture and its wonders.

Required reading for anyone who practices Psychology.

This book is truely one of the greatest books written in the 20th century. Anyone who reads this book with an open heart will understand that he is responsible for his behavior. This book changed my life, forcing me to confront my own sinfulness. Jones explains more about human behavior in this one little book than all of the psychologists of the 20th century combined.YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK!

The emperor has no clothes

Jones examines the lives of modern intellectual luminaries to show that their views often are mere reflections of their own sexual antics. After reading this book it's as hard to accept many popular intellectual theories at face value as it is to believe that the only thing on Bill Clinton's mind is the good of the country. Great reading that will stimulate your mind not your body.

Extremely insightful analysis of what ails "Modernity"

I bought and read this book in pre-Monica 1994, and it was an eye-opener. He basically offers a coherent theory for the amazing disparities between the private behavior and thought, and public behavior and thought, of the shapers of "Modernity" and which was revealed in Paul Johnson's "Intellectuals." Much of his analysis revolves around the two ultimate alternatives in the intellectual life: "either one conforms desire to the truth or one conforms truth to desire." Some of the chapter titles characterize what this book is about: "Samoa Lost: Margaret Mead, Cultural Relativism, and the Guilty Imagination"..."Stanley and Jane's Excellent Adventure: Or, Why Politically Correct Professors Hate Western Civilization"..."Sigmund and Minna and Carl and Sabina: The Birth of Psychoanalysis out of the Personal Lives of Its Founders." I'd strongly recommend this book to anyone trying to understand the deterioration in the traditional norms and values of Western Civilization, or what has been called the "culture war."
