Enhanced my understanding of Americans.

I watch Brooks regularly on the public television program on Fridays and really like him. Then came a 3 hour interview that intensified this feeling. Conservative or not (and he was a Buckley protege, the high point of his life) he is usually pretty practica. This is an excellent book explaining our consumer obsessed economy. As one Amazon reviewer described the book."On Paradise Drive provides blow after blow against our ultra-consumer, extra-large SUV, monster house, I think I like these books because I like reading about my fellow Americans, and ...let's face it...I wouldn't have us any other way.
