I read this because I noticed it seemed many members of the reading group PBT were reading it. I ordered the audio from the library, I never read anything about the book or the author. I was surprised to see how timely it was that I read this book. This gentleman speaks very eloquently and movingly and with genuine passion and care about his experiences. This book moved me to view "news" in a different way. This is a book that informs the reader in a way that changes our perception of events in the past.

And I agree, it made me look at things with a new perspective even though I didn't embrace everything Coates said . . .I did see his book as powerful and important.
