" I think every American should read this book. Even if you come away from the book unconvinced and ready to research counter-arguments, you will have spent some valuable time thinking about US foreign and economic policy. Though rare, I found Chalmers Johnson's disenchanted personal comments a little annoying -- I prefer to enjoy my own disenchantment based on information that is free of overt persuasion. :) "

" Very well written, very informative. A lot of information that will take time to digest. Definitely opens a new world of thought and informs about things never considered regarding American foreign policy and military-industrial complex. This will shape my reads for the forseeable future, and has caused me to be curious about our role in past and future in the world. "

" The most un-American book I have ever read. Was forced to read it by a professor in college in pursuant of my political science degree. I do not recommend it to anyone, as I wouldn't want the author to profit any more than he already has off of this garbage. The professor was garbage as well. "

" To quote a friend of mine "This is one of the best books on 9/11. The irony: it was written prior to 9/11." "

" Good book if you want to understand the consequences of out Cold War and post Cold War policies in Asia. Good insight into the news I heard in the 1990's about Okinawa, Korea, Indonesia, and Japan. "

" This book was written before 9/11 and is somewhat prophetic. However, the title is misleading, as the majority of the book centers on East Asian politics and economics and American policy in that region. "

" This book looks at the American empire through the eyes of East Asians from an American. It also deals some with the rest of the world. It shows the consequences of our actions and tries to predict future consequences. "

" This book, the first in a series of three, is a must read for anyone who gives foreign policy any serious thought. Johnson is steady, and a coherent writer, and lays out his points in a very sound manner. "
