it's almost george packer is not in the book at all himself and so is the unwinding of america, but alsospecifically the middle class. even people who've lost jobs, have been downsized, whose wages have declined since they were young people rather than rising the way you expected them to do in this country. it's really a very provocative and important book, so that i recommend highly. i'm looking forward to rachel kushner's the flamethrowers. i had i read that, but it's a story of a young woman in the 1970s. what intrigues me about it besides the story is that laura miller on salon talk about how rachel kushner's authority and the book is really intriguing, but also rattling ice on reviewers who are used to a woman taken the liberty she takes in the book. i can't wait to see what that really means. and finally, i'm also getting around to ira katz nelson, fear itself. it's a big book. schlepping it to the beach will be fun, but it's intellectual and political history of the new deal also both in name but come in and of world war ii, tying the domestic and international together in a way t

in terms of the brain food, i'm going to be reading "the unwinding" by george packer. he's a great reporter for the new yorker, and number two, i think it's interesting to see his story telling. he's using different venn yet -- vignettes in america including in youngston, ohio, where i'm from, to explore bigger themes about the decline in america, increasing polarization, lack of trust in government, and how that progressed. it's pes miss tick themes, but i think it would be interesting to see how he ties it together. >> tweet us @booktv, post it on our facebook page, or e-mail us at booktv@c-span.org. >> now on booktv, jeremy talks about the secret war against terrorism being fought around the world by elite soldiers serving with the cia's special activities division and joint special operations command. this is about an hour and 15 minutes. >> i'm pleased to welcome you all and introduce our guests this evening. how is it, you may ask yourself, that a constitutional law scholar and nobel peace prize winner can have individuals kill that he and his personal advisers d

and for my brain food, unwinding, by george packer.he grates report for the new yorker and it will be interesting to see his story-telling. using different vignettes and narratives around america, including in youngstown, ohio, which is where i'm from, to explore bigger themes about the decline in america, increasing polarize. >> lack of trust in government and how that progressed. so, pretty pessimistic theme. >> let us know what you're reading, tweet us at booktv, post on our facebook page or send us an e-mail. >> now from raleigh, book tv sat down withensly wegner to explore artificial limbs during and after the civil war. >> contain sort of to answer my own questions, i started my first job in the office archives and history. one of our charges was to find a project to work on, and there had been from the time i started a series of five boxes, kind of in the bottom of a shelf that said, artificial limbs collection, and this is great. here are records that are arranged by people's names. confederate veterans, and the records started

. >>> in today's office politics george packer, george and i discussed his name sake grandfather, a forward plus the economic divide in this country starting with why americans don't seem to know each other well anymore. >> there's been an upward curve of wealth flowing to the top to levels we haven't seen since the great gatsby and of the bottom 60% really flat lining. wages have been stagnant for the majority of americans for over 30 years which is unprecedented. economic inequality is a big part of the book. a big fact at the center of everybody's story. i also think it's a stratification that's hardening where americans don't know each other very well across these lines. people eat different things. they watch different things. they talk differently. obviously there's always been regional distinctions and class distinctions but i feel that today there's like a super class of celebrities and elites at the very top who live in their own world and so on down the line until you get to a family like the heartsel who live in tampa. the dream of ownership turning into a nightmare but a part-ti

[laughter] >> in the book i fantasize the 1,000 top packers get together to create a new system then invent of robot that we will not put the tattoo artist out of work but it is a weird event like something that happens at the googolplex over the weekend but i propose a few different routes i'm not pretending it would be too long dash easy but we have to say how much financial suffering does it take until they realize the regime is not working? how many times do we have to go through this? we did it with savings of loans and securities securities, mortgages and ousted in debt and sovran negative and again and again how many times does this have to have been? it is like coming times list of big computer failed before we call it craft? i don't know the answer or how long it takes until we realize this pattern is unsustainable and then i guess the few people that make the good information i don't see empirically a delicate what people interested in their interested in a general way there is a middle-class distribution that it is medium attention is a member betty getting all of it but i
