Query: Unfortunately... a shrill, confused rant

If you think this book will be something along the lines of Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations", think again. Barber makes scant mention of militant Islam or any other motivation for terror, and does little to discuss or propose practical remedies. Instead, he blathers on about "Declarations of Inter-dependence", "Global Justice", "Democracy versus Capitalism", world government, and every other warmed over pot of anti-globalizing porridge that you can imagine. Within the first twenty pages of the book he is morally equating terrorists with currency speculators, and that theme remains throughout. His hatred for freedom and his ignorance of basic economics are palpable, and both are well expressed in his frequent and verbose attacks on ridiculous straw men. The only Jihad on show here is Barber's zealous neo-Marxism.
