Description

David versus Goliath, the American Revolutionaries, "The Little Engine That Could," Team USA’s "Miracle on Ice," the Star Wars Rebel Alliance, Rocky Balboa, the Jamaican bobsled team and the meek inheriting the Earth.

Everyone, it seems, loves an underdog. Why is that?

In Underdogma, Prell, who has worked with world leaders including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Australian and Canadian prime ministers, and the Dalai Lama, explores our love/hate relationship with power within our culture and our politics. Underdogma explains seeming mysteries such as why: 

  • Several Americans blamed President Bush for the attacks of 9/11, even while the American media described the architect of these attacks as “thoughtful about his cause and craft” and “folksy.”
  • Environmentalists focus their rage on America, even though China is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases.
  • The United Nations elevates countries such as Sudan to full membership on the U.N.’s Commission on Human Rights, even as the ethnic cleansing of Darfur proceeds.

America must return to its founding spirit, and underdogma must stop now—our nation depends on it.
