It's upsetting to read for sure, but it is a must-read for anyone who wants to improve things in this country and the world. Most of the book is spent on the problems, but the last two pages do offer solutions. So stick it out. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/296619?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
