 Rating:  - GREAT DISCOVERYThis book is not easy to find. I finally ordered it from Amazon.com and I was amazed by it. I read all the critiques to this book. I usually like or do not like a book. I love this book, it is very factual, accurate and explores the feeling of about 30 people that had somenting to say about 9-11. It does not matter to me who they are and what they do, what matters is that the essays touch on fears that I had and still have. I do not pretend this book to change the world but to give me feeling and ... Read More Rating:  - Not sure how I feel about itProfits from this book are donated to The Robin Hood Relief Fund. I had a hard time reading this book because it is so overwhelming. This book has a list of names of people who perished in the tragedies from that day. There are man thoughts, words and poetry from victims, and witnesses. It also includes Survivor stories, pictures of loved ones....and much more. Although we all know we will not need this book as a `remembrance'....perhaps it is meant to be more as a memorial, ...

Rating:  - WANTS TO BE THE DEFINITIVE 9/11 BOOK, BUT FAILS...After receiving a few mean-spirited e-mails about my review of this book, I feel I must clarify a few issues. Again, I've gone through nearly 30 books about 9/11. After you get past the austere black cover, this paperback falls with a thud. Simply put, this book tries too HARD to be profound. You see images you've seen before, such as the sequence of shots of one of the jets slamming into the south tower of the WTC. Nothing new. Two things bug me: Layout and content. ... Read More Rating:  - The Anti-American Chomsky Strikes AgainNot satisfied to let the images speak for themselves, noted anti-American Noam Chomsky includes an article blaming the U.S. for the 9/11 attacks. I was enraged to see that such a sad individual would capitalize on an American tragedy, to further his anti-American political agenda. Do not support the publisher of this book. I cannot explain how angry I was to see Chomsky's article quietly inserted among these horrifying images. Its existence invalidates the entire book.
