Ralph Nader--relentless activist, brilliant visionary--may also be the most honest man we've got left in politics. And yet from the moment Nader declared his presidential candidacy, he's faced relentless opposition, mainly from Democrats fearing that competition from an inspiring independent could dent their voting block "as it did in 2000." Even his old pals at The Nation joined the party panic.

Now, in The Good Fight, Nader swings back harder than ever at those who "want to block the American people from having more voices and choices" and have lost touch with the concept that votes must be earned, not inherited. He takes on corporate-occupied Washington and the government's daily abuse against ordinary citizens. And most of all, he urges a speedy return to stronger civic motivation.

In an era when politicians sell us rhetoric and then sell out our principles, Nader stands as a crucial voice of candor. The Good Fight is a call to awareness and action that will captivate readers of all political stripes and help us define what we must do to shape the brightest future for our nation.
