Dear Norman,
It was with great satisfaction and appreciation that I read your introduction to your two new books. In short sentences, you distilled the hipoctracy and mischief the left is playing on the modern world. Can't wait to read the entire work.

Dear Norman:
I enjoyed reading your essay on your motives to write your two latest books, 'An Introduction to Dannish Culture' and 'The Left is Seldom Right'. Since I first visited Denmark I became a great admirer of its modern architecture and design as well as the positive attitude I saw towards the environment. As for the second book, I think it covers a theme that is long overdue, especially the growing prejudice against Israelis among academics. As I Brazilian living in Britain since 1995, one of the things that shocked me in my early days as an immigrant was the notes posted by academics in the internet to boycot Israelis as academics and PhD students. This plus the boycot to hire academics from the Third World in order to prevent the 'brain drain' in those countries was also part of the agenda of the supposedly 'liberal' left.
