Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

Project 2025 Explained

 

Project 2025 Explained, Gregory Durnham, 2025

This book attempts to explain "Project 2025," from the conservative Heritage Foundation, which has been so much in the news recently.

A central part of the plan is cut taxes, and regulations, on business, so they can build more facilities, and create more jobs (instead of raising their own salaries). Another important part of the plan is to concentrate as much power as possible in the hands of the president; it is supposed to improve efficiency. With the coming of high technology, some jobs will disappear, but other jobs will be created. The plan talks about investing in AI and green technology, along with education to re-train laid off workers in 21st century jobs.

"As Project 2025 moves forward, a fundamental aspect of its framework is the incorporation of diversity, inclusion and social justice into all facets of its policy-making and implementation." (page 109 of the kindle edition of this book) Really? When will that start?

For those who don't want to take on the nearly 1,000-page Heritage Foundation book, this is an excellent substitute. It is highly recommended for all Americans.
