What Works by Cal Thomas



“If we Americans can’t solve our problems, who will?” Thomas asks.
             If it is not broken don’t fix it.
 That is good advice. The only problem is how do we know what it is we need to fix?  And to what standard are we to improve it?
Cal Thomas presents the thesis that we know what works. Our standard is the proper understanding of the past filtered through common sense.
        He states that our world view, of which he presents five,determines the remedy we apply. If man is the sole determinative of what works than what works is determined by self. If the standard of what works is determined by a Biblical standard, than something is broke.
        The answer to the problem is not found in Washington D.C., Thomas points out, but in a change of heart brought about by a relationship with God.
        Our world view will influence all areas of our existence. This includes the economy, the family as well as the government.
        What Works is a well written book. We can fix our problem, states Thomas. We just need to understand what is broke and what is the solution.
        This book should be read by all concerned citizens. There is still something that can be done.
        I received this book for free from BookLookBloggers.com for this review. I was not required to give a positive review. Any views expressed are those of the reviewer and do not reflect those of the publisher.
