My guest is Adam Cohen, author of Nothing to Fear, FDR’s Inner Circle and the Hundred Day that created Modern America, and a member of the NY Times’ editorial board. His book can be found at the Penguin Book site: http://us.penguingroup.com/nf/Book/BookDisplay/0,,9781594201967,00.html

Our subject will be his book, and its relevance to today’s America and his thoughts on what is happening vis-à-vis: politics, government, and new era anti-politics. Adam Cohen is a lawyer and an author, who has a particular interest in legal issues, politics and technology. Before joining the Times editorial board in 2002, he was a senior writer at Time, where he wrote about the Supreme Court, Internet privacy and the Microsoft antitrust case, among other topics.

Prior to entering journalism, he was an education-reform lawyer, and a lawyer for the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Ala. He is the author of, "The Perfect Store: Inside eBay" and co-author of "American Pharaoh: Mayor Richard J. Daley, His Battle for Chicago and the Nation." A native of Manhattan, he is a graduate of the Bronx High School of Science, Harvard College and Harvard Law School.
Meanwhile, the mission of The Advocates is to bring to the public differing views on current “public policy” issues. “Public policy,” therefore, is what we as a nation legally and traditionally follow.
