Alarmed at what I believed to be unwholesome economic and political trends in our country, I wrote my novel, REMEDY: D.E.T.O.X.X. AMERICA, because novels have far wider audience appeal than scholarly journals or the college classrooms where I spent my professional career. The novel is a vehicle for consideration of contemporary economic and political questions, as well as being a fast-paced adventure. I taught philosophy and religion in a city easily mistaken for the one where the March on Washington chronicled in this novel begins. Wishing the Occupy movement--which inspired the novel's re-release as an Amazon Kindle e-book with a new cover--every success, I offer the novel, hoping it will inspire courage and perseverance, as well as offering a good read. You might be surprised to learn that the novel was initially published before the Wall Street economic debacle became obvious, but it remains relevant to today.
