"This is a collection of Ree's longer articles, where he takes the time to elaborate and reflect. These articles give the reader an excellent overview of the diverse events of the last decade. Though Ree can be a hard-hitting polemicist, his tone is well considered and his views are nuanced. Ree also
takes a few trips into the past, where he compares anecdotes and stories from different sources. All this makes for excellent reading. I hope the book will give you as much pleasure as it has given me."
From Jan Timman's Foreword
