The Nation 1865-1990: Selections From the Independent Magazine of Politics and Culture

Shows how transnational corporations use lobby groups to shape EU policy. New updated edition The articles, essays, editorials, poems, and illustrations that form this commemorative anthology are, in the words of editor Vanden Heuvel, "representative of The Nation spirit--its passion, commitment, idealism, and skepticism." The collection includes more than 150 items, beginning with the publisher's original prospectus in 1865 and ending with a short piece by Richard Barnet on the U.S. invasion of Panama. The range of talent represented here is nothing short of astounding: Henry James, Robert Benchley, Sinclair Lewis, Willa Cather, H.L. Mencken, Langston Hughes, Bertrand Russell, Dalton Trumbo, Ralph Nader, and Hunter S. Thompson. Strongly recommended for general collections. - Kenneth F. Kister, Tampa, Fla.
