The bill, in one form or another, waited seven years to pass through committee and to the floor for a vote. And now advocates for the legislation are steeling themselves as they send it to the Republican-controlled senate.

To assume that Arthur Goldwag’s The Politics of Fear: The Peculiar Persistence of American Paranoia is a simple review of already well-trod contemporary politics would be a serious mistake. The short (284-page) work offers thoughtful and important insights on a country he describes as “marinated in conspiracy theory.” (4) Goldwag takes his reader on a journey that is vast in its historical depth, and sometimes breathtakingly disturbing.
