In his bestselling classic, More Guns, Less Crime, John R. Lott, Jr., proved that guns make us safer. Now, in his stunning new book, The Bias against Guns, Lott shows how liberals bury pro-gun facts out of sheer bias against the truth.
With irrefutable evidence, Lott shoots gun critics down and gives you the information you need to win arguments with those who want to ban guns.
John R. Lott Jr. was a resident scholar at AEI.

Meticulously researched and textured with fascinating details, these essays "show" as well as "tell" where Russia has been in the past fifteen years and where it is going.
This book explores a problem that has been building quietly for years: the military has been expending without expanding or even replacing what has been spent.
