book rev

Another gem, The Professors, was literally <a href="http://politicalcorrection.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.insidehighered.com%2Fnews%2F2006%2F05%2F09%2Freport">laughed off</a> by the academic community.  Many of them saw their inclusion into the book as a badge of honor.  One of the supposed radical academics Horowitz "exposed" in his book was <a href="http://politicalcorrection.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww2.truman.edu%2F%257Emarc%2FBecker.pdf">Marc Becker from Truman State University</a>.  Becker was "organizer and media developer" for "Historians against the War" and made the uncontroversial statement that "Indigenous peoples of the Americas" have been devastated by the policies of some multilateral institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund.  Scary stuff, right?

Horowitz's book, One-Party Classroom, which not surprisingly beats that same dead horse, was recently included in theAmerican Book Review's list of <a href="http://politicalcorrection.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Famericanbookreview.org%2FPDF%2FTop40BadBooks.pdf">Top 40 Bad Books</a>.  Not just in 2009, but ever. Santa Clara University academic Marc Bousquet's <a href="http://politicalcorrection.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Famericanbookreview.org%2FPDF%2FTop40BadBooks.pdf" style=" background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255) !important;">review</a> of One-Party Classroom is delightfully accurate:

This book just goes after the syllabi, not the scholarship of the faculty, and the somnolence it produces is hard to describe. Evidently, they should have credited Google as the third author. The Horowitz staffers tasked with compiling this stinker simply trolled online campus catalogs to yield course descriptions using such democracy-undermining terms as "justice," "inequality," "race," and "feminism," then wrote lame descriptions characterizing the syllabi as part of a plot to deprive William Gates and Dick Cheney of their hard-earned profits.
