Yet, once the ballots have been cast and the camera crews go home, the American war machine chugs along in almost complete obscurity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\t\u003cp\u003eThe journalist and political analyst Norman Solomon's \u003cem\u003eWar Made Invisible\u003c\/em\u003e is a \"gripping and painful study\" (Noam Chomsky) of the mechanisms behind our invisible, but perpetual, national state of war. From ever-compliant journalists serving as little more than stenographers for the Pentagon to futuristic military technology, horrifying in its destructive power, that makes dropping a bomb or pulling the trigger on a drone strike more of an abstraction than a moral calculation, Solomon's \"staggeringly important intervention\" (Naomi Klein) exposes the profoundly human consequences at home and abroad of the bipartisan commitment to war making.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\t\u003cp\u003eIn an era of increasing global instability in which it is all too easy to succumb to despair, Solomon pierces the \"manufactured 'fog of war' . . . [and] casts sunlight, the best disinfectant, on the propaganda that fuels perpetual war\" (Amy Goodman). Now in paperback with a new preface by the author on the Gaza war, Solomon's incisive, ever-timely analysis \"provide[s] the fresh and profound clarity that our country desperately needs\" (Daniel Ellsberg) now more than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorman Solomon\u003c\/strong\u003e is co-founder of RootsAction.org and executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy.
