William A. Cook's Age of Fools is an attempt to relocate our society where it belongs. It is an injection of intense humanism, a celebration of creative thinking that encourages creative reading. - Gilad Atzmon, Israeli-born British Jazz Artist, Author & popular Critical Analyst of Mid-East and Global Affairs Bill Cook is the Barbara Tuchman of our time. This is a courageous book, not the brawny courage of the warrior, but the deeper courage of the peacemaker and the eloquent courage of the truth-teller, who speaks of things many would rather not hear, even though their very future may depend upon it. - Jeffrey St. Clair, Editor, CounterPunch Writes Cook: "From the opening volley of Neo-Con unelected, self-appointed manifestos to take control, to the lies they told the American people through their representatives, to the failure to seek the truth about what took place on 9/11, I have witnessed a cold-blooded group of arrogant men systematically emasculate the rights of the American citizen. What America was in its birthing, it is no longer." Labeling this era "Age of Fools" in the tradition of 15th century Sebastian Brant's "Ship of Fools" and embellishing his work with artwork by Edward Beardsley, Cook writes: "How ironic that the self-proclaimed righteous, the born again Christian Zionists and the Jewish Zionists wheedle their way into their respective governments, preaching the Devil's agenda, using superstition, deception and hypocrisy. In the process they destroy the true and permanent tenets of Christianity and the founding principles of Democracy. America, in short, mirrors the arrogance of the Israeli state under... right-wing Zionist groups that constitute its government... With Israel, driven by its god of war, we are the twin demons of destruction that live in constant fear of all peoples who would rather die than be subjugated, exploited, or oppressed."

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Review by Dr Gideon Polya of "Age of Fools" by William Cook. By Gideon Polya “Age of Fools” by William A. Cook (author, activist, poet and professor of English at the University of La Verne, California) should be read by everyone as a brilliant and passionate condemnation of the continuing US Alliance atrocities in the Muslim world. “Age of Fools” employs poetry, polemical prose and European literary traditions to excoriate the horrendous Bush America and Israeli crimes of the first decade of the 21st century in Iraq and Palestine, respectively - atrocities that are continuing today.In the face of immense human suffering in Iraq and Palestine, a dispassionate, statistical and legalistic approach is insufficient to describe the gut-wrenching awfulness and we also need art, music, poetry, passionate prose, and indeed neologisms (new words) and this poetical and polemical approach is used with unrelenting, compelling force by William Cook in “Age of Fools”. Thus, for example, he coins the term “demonocracy” to describe Israel and its crimes against the Palestinians.William Cook draws upon the European literary tradition that notably in the English-speaking world includes the King James version of the Holy Bible. Indeed William Cook frequently alludes to or quotes from the Holy Bible, and his own poetry in the book has the same apocalyptic tone found with the prophets of the Old Testament and in the Book of Revelations of the New Testament. Indeed, the lengthy subtitle of the book sets the tone and summarizes the thrust of the book thus: “The Bush/Obama administrations, driven by the twin horses of the Apocalypse, the Evangelical Christian Zionists and the Neo-Con Zealots, pulls America ever closer to the brink of disaster by wielding whips of righteous prophecy and self-serving lies”. William Cook’s “Age of Fools” is illustrated by appropriately sinister, Kafka-esque images by Edward Beardsley and is a powerful book to rattle consciences in the rich, comfortable West that have been blunted by decades of Mainstream media, politician , academic and lobbyist censorship, lying by omission and lying by commission. William Cook makes the powerful suggestion of 30 December as a Day of Lamentation. Peace is the only way but silence kills and silence is complicity.
