What does Noah's flood have to do with the War in Iraq? Is Harry Potter a Libertarian? Why are we still fighting the War of 1812? Is drug prohibition like the Puritanical banning of Christmas? How is the income tax like ghosts and goblins? Is Dora the Explorer a Communist? These and the forty-five other essays here blend Yankee history, humor, ingenuity, and ideology to examine today's hot topics. Each one gives you something unique to think about and talk about with others. Together, they are a fresh way of looking at life. Dr. Phil Maymin is an award-winning journalist, a Policy Scholar for the Yankee Institute, a Justice of the Peace, a former Congressional candidate, and a columnist for the Fairfield County Weekly. He holds a Ph.D. in Finance from the University of Chicago and Master's and Bachelor's degrees from Harvard University. He has also been a portfolio manager at Long-Term Capital Management, Ellington Management Group, and his own hedge fund, Maymin Capital Management.
