Blending history, personal experience and social commentary, Made Love, Got War documents many decades of rising U.S. militarism and the media’s all-too-frequent failure to challenge it. As Daniel Ellsberg notes in the book’s foreword, author and activist Norman Solomon’s unique weave of eyewitness narrative and historical inquiry “helps us understand where we are now and how we got here.” Solomon’s firsthand knowledge and wide-ranging chronicle raise an essential question: To what ends should the United States use its awesome political, economic, media and scientific power? Made Love, Got War provides readers with meaningful answers.
