Rezension zu „Get Real “
"A quite brilliant reality check. Angry, erudite and accessible. I loved it." Dame Jenni Murray "A sharp, lively wake-up call to free ourselves from the illusions that we live by. Crystal clear, elegantly written and inspiring, it is all the more necessary to read Glaser's book at a time when we are increasingly pressured to imbibe phony ideology, phony science and phony ethics. Being disabused by Glaser is a great pleasure." Darian Leader "These are big ideas, laid out with precision, grace and urgency. I couldn't put it down. And this is normally the whole point of non-fiction, that you can put it down." Zoe Williams 'Eliane Glaser, whose persuasive forthcoming book Get Real pleas for authenticity against the spin of politics, celebrity and the marketplace' Boyd Tonkin, Independent 'In an age when journalists have, in large numbers, moved from the bullshit-detection business to the bullshit-promulgation business, it's always welcome to come upon a book that hoists its flag proudly in the first camp. Eliane Glaser's is one such.' Sam Leith, Guardian
