Summary: Sarah Fredrickson's review is absurd
Comment: I wasn't really going to comment on 15 Tips until I checked out the reviews. Sarah Fredrickson from Detroit wrote a negative review on April 15, 1999. As a person who was once on the Left and now considers himself on the center, I would say that it is the mentality of people like Fredrickson that made me abandon the Leftist cause. I was very embarassed reading Fredrickson's review. This is obviously a very troubled individual. She says Glazov should be "silenced" because he is an "enemy" and a "danger". Her main argument is that she was very "offended". I mean, for God's sakes, if this is the only argument the Left can come up with against Glazov's piece than it is really a sad statement for the position socialism is in. I personally do not agree with everything in the 15 Tips, and I sense the author is some kind of a Reaganite. At the same time, I am not sure I have an answer to Glazov and I will wait till I do. Meanwhile, I strongly suggest to Ms. Fredrickson that she abandon her cause for awhile and take a look in the mirror. She's got "loser" written all over her forehead. Her "review" is an embarassment to the Left. I am begging anyone on the Left, if you have any hope left, answer a book like 15 Tips with something profound, not with ignorant statements, insults, and complaints about your emotional pain after reading the book. If you want me to come back to the Left, state your case, not the biography of your emotional instability, intellectual bankruptcy, and political intolerance.

Summary: Humour and shrewd political psychology
Comment: In 15 Tips, not only has Jamie Glazov achieved an important success in the art of satire, but he has also successfully penetrated into the psychology of our political and social times and revealed what appears as a sickness within the contemporary political mentality. His use of humour in this pursuit makes the book delightful in its accessibility, but it is also profoundly disturbing in the reader's ability to recognize the characteristics which Glazov sarcastically encourages not only among radical leftists but among all kinds of people. Glazov's booklet is a successful artistic enterprise as well as an important socio-political commentary.

Summary: Craven idiocy
Comment: How courageous, writing a book criticing a chimerical "left", without any sustained or rigorous argument and relying on a bundle of familiar stereotypes unworthy of serious consideration. What masochistic impulse leads Glazov et al to be paid sevants of the status quo? To be read only by those unimaginative and unintelligent enough to think that society as it is is basically as good as it gets.
