Make America Sane Again: Reflections on Trump's Travesties catalogues Donald Trump's many travesties, dating back to his first inauguration but concentrating on his second term. The book is a nearly daily analysis of Trump's horrors, one by one, including his personal demons, his quest for unlimited power, and his various wars on democracy, justice, women, trans-genders, medicine, science, universities, free thought, law firms, the environment, the IRS, the homeless, poor people, Africa, and more. The analysis is written with a meticulousness and rigor that reflects the author's scientific training, but in a conversational, easy-to-read letters-to-the-editor style. (A number were published in the NYT or Chicago Tribune.) Furthermore, many of the letters have a bit of a twist in them, enlivening the discussion. The style is unique in the political reporting genre.

Industry Reviews

"Sheldon Hirsch has written a stunning, thorough description of the countless misdeeds and illegal actions by Donald Trump. His book is simultaneously detailed and readable. It is an essential record of what Trump has done and is a searing indictment of our country's failure to follow the most basic precept of the rule of law: no one, not even the president, is supposed to be above the law."-Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean and Jesse H. Choper Distinguished Professor of Law, University of California, Berkeley School of Law.



"Reading this insightful book is like having a conversation with a wise and sensitive friend who notices what is important, who remembers what you have forgotten, who is recording for posterity the day-to-day and week-to-week life under an America abused by Trump. May Hirsch's brilliant book help make the title come true: Make America Sane Again!"-Steven B. Gerrard, Mark Hopkins Professor of Philosophy, Williams College.



"Hirsch's humanity and empathy enable him to spotlight Trump's utter lack of the same, and how that has manifested in so many harmful policies. This book is highly recommended for anyone concerned about our current slide toward autocracy and kleptocracy, and Trump's many egregious malfeasances."-David Goldfarb, MD, Professor of Medicine and Physiology, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, Chief, Division of Nephrology, NYU Langone Health.



"Hirsch provides us with a handy guide, searchable by topic, to everything that is wrong with Donald Trump and the state of American democracy today."-Gabor Rona, Professor, Cardozo Law School, Formerly International Legal Director of Human Rights First.



"Doctor Hirsch offers a reader-friendly dissection of the plague of Trump's reign both for posterity and for the edification of American voters."-David McGrath, Columnist, Chicago Tribune, Former Professor of English at the College of DuPage.



"It is a great chronicle! A terrific telling of the story-a narrative with personal dimension, explanation, analysis, and informed opinion." -Brook Howard, MD, Former Chairman of Pathology, Providence Portland Medical Center, USA.



"Beautifully and concisely written-a great way to chronicle Trump's transgressions."-William Becker, Executive Director, Presidential Climate Action Project
