From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
To be honest, it is very hard to listen to debates like the obnoxious character, Tony Katz, you had on a 2:15 PST. Apparently this guys whole purpose in life is to argue against any logic. We tend to want to find a counter to every side of each argument, creating the "false center". It would be better to talk to 97 people that represent one side (the side of logic and clarity) and then the 3 that are wingnuts like this guy. To be fair, I am not against people having other opinions, but I do resent those that seem incapable of rational thought!
