Return to Sender: Unanswered Letters to the President, 2003-2014

Autor Ralph Nader
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mai 2015
The prescient but ignored letters of warning and advice sent to Presidents Bush and Obama by Ralph Nader, America's foremost consumer advocate, grassroots activist, and third-party leader. Nader provides critiques spanning more than a decade of American policy, on topics ranging from the Iraq war to minimum wage. Each letter shines light on government mishaps and missed opportunities. With his signature dry wit, Nader holds these Presidents to their campaign promises and boldly points to the ignoble decisions made in pursuit of party platforms and misguided ideals.

Notă biografică

Born in Connecticut in 1934, RALPH NADER has spent his lifetime challenging corporations and government agencies to be more accountable to the public. His 1965 book Unsafe at Any Speed permanently altered the course of a reckless U.S. automobile industry and made Nader a household name. His lobbying and writing on the food industry helped to ensure that the food we buy is required to pass strict guidelines before reaching the consumer. One of Nader’s greatest achievements was his successful lobbying for a 1974 amendment to the Freedom of Information Act, which gave increased public access to government documents. Over the years he has co-founded the public interest groups Public Citizen, Critical Mass, Commercial Alert, and the Center for the Study of Responsive Law. His 2000 presidential campaign on the Green Party ticket served to broaden the scope of debate on the nation’s priorities. Named by the Atlantic as one of the hundred most influential figures in American history, Nader continues to be a relentless advocate for grassroots activism and democratic change. He lives in Washington, D.C.
