This is a very short easy to read book that captures the core beliefs of the modern conservative movement and gives examples of how those beliefs apply in practice. Although written in the early 60's the writing is just as fresh and relevant today. For instance when reading the section on the cold war, just substitute the words "radical Islam" and you have some great ideas for dealing with the current problems our nation faces. This book offers some great talking points for anyone running on or campaigning for the conservative ticket in the next election.
