Resumen del Editor

In this visionary book, Dennis Prager, one of America's most original thinkers, contends that humanity confronts a monumental choice. The whole world must decide between American values and its two oppositional alternatives: Islamism and European-style democratic socialism.

Prager - a bestselling author, columnist, and nationally syndicated radio talk show host who is read and heard by millions of people in America and abroad - makes the case for the American value system as the most viable program ever devised to produce a good society. Those values are explained here more clearly and persuasively than ever before.

Still the Best Hope deals with three huge themes: The first is perhaps the most persuasive explanation for why Leftism has been and will always be a moral failure, despite its acknowledged appeal to many people of goodwill. The second explains why fundamentalist Islam, despite its historic and growing appeal, cannot make a good society. But Prager holds out hope for an open and tolerant Islam and explains why it will emerge from faithful American Muslims. The third is a singularly persuasive defense and explanation of what Prager calls the "American Trinity": liberty, values rooted in the Creator, and the melting-pot ideal. These values are inscribed on every American coin as "Liberty," "In God We Trust," and "E Pluribus Unum," and they are the reasons for America's greatness. Without them, America will cease to be an exceptional nation, and therefore cease to be America.

Prager shows why these values can and must be adopted by every nation and culture in the world, why Americans must relearn and recommit to these values, and why America must vigorously export them. For if the world does not adopt American values, the result will be chaos and barbarism on an unprecedented scale.

What a great new perspective

What made the experience of listening to Still the Best Hope the most enjoyable?

This was a view into why the Left and Muslim Extremist and why they believe as they do. It is enlightening to me to understand why good people on all sides of the political aisle view the world as they do.

Irrefutable arguments against the "leftist" view.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, the conservatives would love it and the "leftists" desperately need it.

What did you like best about this story?

Prager doesn't just give his views, he backs up each point with hard facts and examples.

If you could give Still the Best Hope a new subtitle, what would it be?

Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it. Or - So you think your elitists are smarter than all those elitists who've tried collectivism before?

Any additional comments?

What's the use? Conservatives already know and the leftists will hide their eyes and cover their ears... again.

Well Done

Dennis Prager lays out a template for a successful country using Ametica as the blueprint.

Eye opening

Every American should be required to read this. Kids in school should be taught the principles in this book before it's too late.

American Ideals on Endangered List

Would you listen to Still the Best Hope again? Why?

yes-lot of info, facts to absorb

What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?

Human beings, left to their own devices,without sound moral consensus or faith based foundations,at the very least a higher power, become creatures of immense capacity for self-indulgence,reduced creativity,and loss of uniqueness intended for mankind as part of the purpose and hope in Creation.

What does Erik Bergman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Easy to get lost reading a long book-audio narrative kept my interest.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Wanted to get to finish, but needed breaks to process info.

Any additional comments?

Listened to on car trip-stll found engrossing.

Couldn’t put it down.

I absolutely love this book. The clarity in which the story was delivered was outstanding. I can’t recommend this book enough. Get it, read it and thank me later.

Nails It!

Just discovered Dennis Prager recently on YouTube after wondering who was behind Prager U. If you want a very concise explanation about the differences between Conservatism and Socialism and their consequences at home and abroad, this is the book. Reinforced what I knew but expanded on beautifully! It is comprehensive and bold. I think Dennis missed the mark a very little here and there when discussing similarities between Islam and Christianity, seemed trying to play the good cop and not to totally be dumping on Islam. Other than that teeny tiny disagreement, I think this work is the best and most clear on the topic that I have read (listened to) to date. I am a proud Christian American (Black) who wholeheartedly recommends Still the Best Hope!

first class treatment of the liberal left.

All in our nation who struggle to understand the obvious fall of our culture and try to understand the mindset and attitudes of those who are 'remaking it'.will know the sea of books on this subject.though there are many good ones, most do not reach to the first principles needed to understand an attitude and philosophy that is absent from ones mind and heart personaly.This is one of only a few that I have found that trully lays out these first principles..[george rochs'a world without heroes' and all of g.k. chesterton are a few].I highly recommend this book as well as his book on happiness....Enjoy fellow Americans and brothers and sisters under our Father.
