Sorry Jim. I was unclear. I should have said, " Fine's critical expositions".
And Doug, I'd love to read the book and may just do that, if I can find it in the library. Right now, I'm reading Michael P's PERVERSE ECONOMY, borrowed from via the Queens Park Library. I just reviewed Schlomo Sand's INVENTION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE for the "Industrial Worker". So many books to read and possibly review, so little time and I am slow...very slow at the whole project. Usually, the books have to have been acquired by the library as well which puts a crimp in the whole thing. Mike B) Mike Ballard wrote: > I enjoyed listening and posted the link to my FB page.

He sees having autism as being the same as having an "extreme male brain." *********************************************************************** When classwide solidarity is a crime, the mask of democracy is removed to reveal the ugly face of capitalist dictatorship. http://wobblytimes.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
