Synopsis

It's easy to see that Tom Donelson loves to learn. His chief interests are political science and economics. But he also delves into biography, boxing and rock n roll. Sometimes, he mixes what he gleans from different disciplines to support certain central ideas: Freedom is good. Free markets are good. People can prosper if government stays out of their way.So here it is, as Donelson says, a synopsis of his thoughts, some of which have been offered in publications ranging from an alternative paper in Kansas City, to daily newspapers (including The Gazette, of Cedar Rapids and Iowa City, for which I work on the opinion page), to the National Review. As he observes, it's self-evident that he is a conservative. But he provides plenty of evidence to back taking that point of view.Kurt Rogahn, Cedar Rapid Gazette
