For Love or Money
Radio host and best-selling author Dr. Laura Schlessinger’s conservative approach to counseling women has garnered her a healthy following of both fans and detractors. She’ll discuss her latest book, Woman Power, and her theories on successful lives and marriages. Also no stranger to controversy, economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman shares his views on the 2004 presidential elections, and tells us about the updated release of his book The Great Unraveling. And Sol Stein shares his memories on the significance of his friendship with James Baldwin in Native Sons. Finally, Dan Hill tells us what the facial expressions of George W. Bush and John Kerry can tell us about the candidates.
