Creating Freedom

Reviews

“Narrator Steve West grabs this book by the ears and narrates the heck out of it. His silky, deep British-accented voice sets the dark tone for this well-argued work. West guides us through the author’s arguments and pauses enough to make sure that he doesn’t lose us. He also has impeccable timing and pronunciation and uses his voice to create tension in order to keep us listening.”

“Exceptional…This year’s essential text for thinking radicals.”

“If you believe you are free, think again…[A] manifesto to enlighten citizens stuck in an illusion of democracy.”

“Eminently readable…It is no less than a rallying cry to take back the substance rather than the illusions of our freedoms.”

“An impassioned social and political critique with glimmers of hope for change…An intelligent, rigorous manifesto.”

“In this stunning and lucid book, Raoul Martinez reassesses our past, reexamines our present, and reimagines our future. It’s such an exciting and compelling read that you almost don’t notice at first how radical it is. Creating Freedom makes me think that we humans are on the cusp of our next big step—and it’s this kind of thinking that will carry us over.”

“I’ve been working my way through, highlighter in hand, at times thinking, ‘Why bother! Just highlight the whole thing.’ Super impressive.”

“Provocative, powerful, and important—Creating Freedom is a rigorous exploration of what’s gone wrong with our society and how to make it right. A book for our time, this radical manifesto exposes the myths at the heart of our system and shows what the ideal of freedom truly demands from us, individually and collectively.”
