As we've said in our ongoing series of interviews with progressive talk show hosts, we like the different styles of so many of them. But we've developed a special relationship at BuzzFlash with Thom, who writes a monthly "Independent Thinker" book review exclusively for BuzzFlash.
We've come to find Thom an amazing renaissance man: an author, who manages to write acclaimed books while hosting a daily radio show program that Talkers Magazine says is ranked as the number one progressive talk show in the nation.
And anyone who listens to Thom's program quickly finds out, he's one of those people with an encyclopedia for a brain fitted out with high-speed circuitry to counter any nonsense from the right wing.
Thom was way ahead of things when he wrote incredible book about saving planet earth and our species: "The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight: The Fate of the World and What We Can Do Before It's Too Late" (Revised and Updated).
From the publisher: "While everything appears to be collapsing around us -- ecodamage, genetic engineering, virulent diseases, the end of cheap oil, water shortages, global famine, wars -- we can still do something about it and create a world that will work for us and for our children's children. The inspiration for Leonardo DiCaprio's web movie Global Warning, The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight details what is happening to our planet, the reasons for our culture's blind behavior, and how we can fix the problem. Thom Hartmann's comprehensive book, originally published in 1998, has become one of the fundamental handbooks of the environmental activist movement. Now, with fresh, updated material and a focus on political activism and its effect on corporate behavior, The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight helps us understand--and heal--our relationship to the world, to each other, and to our natural resources."
