DESCRIPTION: With 160 entries from 'arrogance' to 'zoos', Doug Dowd's new encyclopedia 
 puts the U.S. back in its cage.  _The Broken Promises of America_ is the 
 ultimate primer on what has gone wrong with our country.  This is a 
 must-have reference work that’s as entertaining as it is profound.  From 
 'racism' to 'violence', from 'militarism' to 'power', Dowd’s entries 
 provide an education by provocation.  Please join Peninsula Peace and 
 Justice Center for an engaging and fun afternoon as we honor Doug and his 
 new book.  The reception will be followed by a reading and 
 book-signing.\n\nDoug Dowd is a political economist, indefatigable teacher, 
 and author of many books. Z Magazine says of his work, “Doug Dowd’s 
 long and distinguished career has been characterized by a fruitful marriage 
 of scholarship and activism.  He belongs within an indigenous American 
 tradition of dissenting radicalism whose most famous – perhaps notorious 
 – representatives are Thorstein Veblen and C. Wright Mills.  Dowd has 
 been an articulate and persistent critic of the American experience for 
 more than 40 years, engaging both students and the wider 
 public.”\n\nFree; donations to PPJC will be requested.\n
