One of the highest-rated public affairs programs on public
television, Bill Moyers Journal drew up to two million
weekly viewers from 2007 to 2010. Through incisive, morally
engaging conversations with some of the leading political
figures, writers, activists, poets, and scholars at work
today, the Journal captured the essence of the past three
pivotal years in American life and politics, including the
final act of the Bush Administration and the early years of
Obama. Now, Bill Moyers Journal: The Conversation Continues brings
this groundbreaking work to the page. From Michael Pollan,
David Simon, and Jane Goodall to John Grisham, Karen
Armstrong, and Barbara Ehrenreich, Bill Moyers Journal: The
Conversation Continues introduces the ideas that matter
today—on subjects as diverse as the politics of food, race
in the age of Obama, aging in America, the power of poetry,
wars in the Middle East and Afghanistan, the conflict over
gay marriage, and the fate of the American newspaper. With extensive new commentary from Bill Moyers—in the
tradition of his national bestsellers A World of Ideas and
Healing and the Mind—here is an unparalleled guide to the
debates, the cultural currents, and above all the
fascinating people who have so powerfully shaped the world
we live in.
