||| FROM DAVID TURNOY |||


I want to bring a new book to your attention.  For years Dr. John Geyman of Friday Harbor has been writing books and pamphlets listing the ills of our current medical system while promoting the improvements we would see in a single payer Medicare-for-All system.  Now Dr. Geyman has written a book that takes on all the major problems of our current political/governmental system while proposing solutions.  The book is Are We the United States of America?  Can We Hold Together As One Country?  Here is a review by Ralph Nader: 

       If there was ever a book you want to hug and read for clearly and graphically focusing your attention on the corporatist forces disintegrating our political, economic and cultural institutions for this amassing of profits-at-any-cost, this short, concise ARE WE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?  CAN WE HOLD TOGETHER AS ONE COUNTRY?  is right now the number one choice.
In less than 200 readable pages, with footnote references to follow up, Dr. Geyman lays out the key approaches to rebuild unity and sense of community.  He shows how this restoration is in our own hands for “we the people” are the sovereign power under our constitution.  The good doctor gives us the prescription.  Let’s take and use it as our ways of living.
This is that rare book of universal appeal and action to give to your local library and discuss at your local book club or neighborhood gathering.

The book is available at local bookstores and online.  And as suggested by Ralph Nader, I have provided my copy to the local library on Orcas.  Please check it out.
