The Armour of Contempt (Gaunt's Ghosts)18 reviews
Dan Abnett

Games Workshop, 2007

More good work from Abnett.
I liked it very much; not sure if it was because I always like Abnett or because I'd just finished that dreadful Descent of Angels book. Good plot development, just enough characters to make things diverse without losing any tension. Could have been a bit longer, but that's just me.
  
  











  



  
Breeding Contempt: The History of Coerced Sterilization in the United States
Mark A. Largent

Rutgers University Press, 2007

Contempt of Court: The Turn-of-the-Century Lynching That Launched a Hundred Years of Federalism22 reviews
Mark Curriden, Leroy Phillips

Anchor, 2001

Scary moments of our past
When Leroy Phillips, Jr. came to visit my school in Chattanooga, I was overwhelmed by the knowledge that something like this could have happened in my city. After his talk, I decided to read the book for myself. At first, I noticed that the authors took a lot of time to research the subject thoroughly, so much so that I think they know more about Chattanooga than I do, keeping in mind Leroy ...
  
  











  



  
In Contempt41 reviews
Christopher A. Darden, Jess Walter

Harper, 1997

very inspiring
First off, Jess Walters is a wonderful writer. Very powerful writing. After reading the book, I have the upmost respect for Darden and his fight for justice. Although he could not achieve justice for Nicole Brown, I admire him for his heart. This is an easy book to read. Getting an insider look through the eyes of Darden is well worth your time. It inspires emotion and inspiration.
  
  











  



  
Contempt (New York Review Books Classics)8 reviews
Alberto Moravia

NYRB Classics, 2004

Faustian Bargain and the Unreliable Narrator
After a second reading of Contempt, I feel compelled to call the short, tautly written novel a masterpiece. Told from the perspective of a neurotic egotist, the narrator accounts how he "sacrificed" his literary writing career to debase himself in the tawdry task of writing screenplays so that he can afford to lavish his wife with a bigger more opulent living quarters. The narrator convinces ...

Contempt and Pity: Social Policy and the Image of the Damaged Black Psyche, 1880-19963 reviews
Daryl Michael Scott

The University of North Carolina Press, 1997

A passionate and erudite work.
Mr Scott has demonstrated that the left and right have often distorted the African-Americans' humanity. This study serves to correct the position of Black folk and to return their humanity. Black folk are neither pathological as a group or helpless victims. Rather the African-American has faced discrimination and continues to face discrimination. Yet the solution to the African-Americans ...

The Tears of the White Man: Compassion As Contempt1 review
Pascal Bruckner

The Free Press, A Division of Macmillan Inc., 1986

Must Read
Pascal Bruckner's The Tears of the White Man is an old school classic concerning the guilt westerners feel towards citizens of the third world. It also describes the guilt whites feel towards people of color in general, but is only vicariously applicable to the United States. An introduction by William Beer ties its narrative to the American experience but Bruckner himself, a Frenchmen, doesn't ...
  
  











  



  
Contempt: How the Right Is Wronging American Justice26 reviews
Catherine Crier

Rugged Land, 2005

In "Contempt" Crier does an outstanding job of exposing the danger being posed by right-wingers, especially the Religious Right, in their attempt to take over the court system in America. She discusses the absurd statements and actions of well known evangelical nut cases such as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. But she also talks about lesser known religious extremists who are using their power ...

Mutual Contempt: Lyndon Johnson, Robert Kennedy, and the Feud That Defined a Decade22 reviews
Jeff Shesol

W. W. Norton & Company, 1998

Mutual Contempt
With so many books about the Kennedys and LBJ, it is strange that this is the first to focus specifically on Bobby Kennedy's feud with Lyndon Johnson. Their animus was visible to all who knew them, from family and close advisors to junior staff and reporters. The hatred began before the 1960 campaign, but really seemed to blossom at the 1960 Democratic convention, when LBJ was chosen as John ...
