Autorenporträt

Former Vice President of the Concordia Student Union, Yves Engler has been dubbed "one of the most important voices on the Canadian Left today" (Briarpatch), "in the mould of I.F. Stone" (Globe and Mail), "ever-insightful" (rabble.ca) and a "Leftist gadfly" (Ottawa Citizen). His six books have been praised by Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, William Blum, Rick Salutin and many others. "Yves became a foreign-policy expert by working as a night doorman in Montreal...He's in the mould of I. F. Stone, who wasted no time with politicians, who all have an agenda, but went instead straight to the public record." - Rick Salutin, Globe and Mail
