“Human trafficking is not an issue of the left or right; blue states or red states; but a great moral tragedy we can unite to stop . . . Not for Sale is a must-read to see how you can join the fight.†—Jim Wallis; author of God's Politics“David Batstone is a heroic character.†—BonoIn the revised and updated version of this harrowing yet deeply inspirational exposé; award-winning journalist David Batstone gives the most up-to-date information available on the $31 billion human trafficking epidemic. With profiles of twenty-first century abolitionists like Thailand’s Kru Nam and Peru’s Lucy Borja; Batstone tells readers what they can do to stop the modern slave trade. Like Kevin Bales’ Disposable People and Ending Slavery; or E. Benjamin Skinner’s A Crime So Monstrous; Batstone’s Not for Sale is an informative and necessary manifesto for universal freedom.

Good work on most things; doesn't go far enough.By Anthony WickJay Richards does a great job tackling the issues of why foreign aide doesn't work; and the many other unintended consequences of government intervention into the market place. My beef with this book is that it doesn't go far enough. Government is ultimately the problem. We have been living under cronyism (the collusion of big government and big business) and not allowing a free market; the consumer; to determine where the economy is heading. He doesn't get after the idea of a central planned economy through central banking and bubbles bursting that sent the market into a crash in 2008 and still plagues us. Christians can be and should be Capitalists. More so; I urge anyone interested to look into Anarcho-Capitalism.
