As citizens who will elect future presidents of the most powerful and influential country in the world, we need to know truly understand, not just rely on television's talking heads if Iran's nascent nuclear capability is a genuine threat to the West, if biochemical weapons are likely to be developed by terrorists, if there are viable alternatives to fossil fuels that should
We live in complicated, dangerous times. They are also hyper-technical times. As citizens who will elect future presidents of the most powerful and influential country in the world, we need to know--truly understand, not just rely on television's talking heads--if Iran's nascent nuclear capability is a genuine threat to the West, if biochemical weapons are likely to be developed by terrorists, if there are viable alternatives to fossil fuels that should be nurtured and supported by the government, if nuclear power should be encouraged, and if global warming is actually happening. This book is written in everyday, nontechnical language on the science behind the concerns that our nation faces in the immediate future. Even active readers of serious journalism will be surprised by the lessons that the book contains. It is "must-have" information for all presidents--and citizens--of the twenty-first century.Binding Type: Hardcover

Sturdy and easy to use
Color: Silver
Ordered this one to replace another type that snapped apart in my hand. The Beneno Wine Opener is sturdy and easy to use. The inner silicone collar helps guide the mechanism around the bottle and cork. Opening is clean and almost effortless.

Good Value
Color: Ash silver
I bought this to replace an older wine bottle winged opener that broke when I was trying to open a bottle with a synthetic cork. This one is made of heavier stainless steel and feels like it will hold up well.
