The Assault on Reason is primarily an assault on the Bush administration, according to a New York Times book review.
It is a political book [1] by Al Gore which he denies is political. [2] In the book, Gore accuses President Bush of having an unprincipled hunger for power.
In the book, Al Gore discusses how he thinks that the American democracy has been undermined by the current administration's intrusions of power. While claiming that the book is not political, Gore attacks the current President and his administration relentlessly.
In a June 12, 2007 review for Reason Magazine, Michael C. Moynihan wrote:
The Assault on Reason reestablishes Gore as America’s premier besserwisser and moral scold: the politician who both warns that we are scaring people to death and argues that Manhattan will soon be submerged beneath the Atlantic.[3]
ABC's Jake Tapper wrote:
"The Assault On Reason" is an assault on President George W. Bush -- 308 pages of professorially rendered, liberal red meat.
