We all ask this question from time to time, some more than others. With criminal corporate activity, the wealthy taking advantage of the poor, politicians securing their power with shady backroom deals, marketers and advertisers bombarding us with manipulative images, and the rape and destruction of our environment, the constant conquest to make a profit seems like the undoing of us all, sooner or later.We want to feel safe in our society. We need to know that when we wake up every morning that our efforts are causing good rather than damage and unfairness.

Bush, who was rescued by a submarine. Author James Bradley uses this basic narrative as a vehicle for examining the history of American foreign policy and the rise of Japanese militarism. On a more individual level, he explores the atrocities and moral ambiguity of war.
