    Two new books were reviewed in this past Sunday's Boston Globe, and
    unfortunately the article was not available online, well, for free....
    But both books looked particularly interesting to this forum, and I take
    the time to type in their titles and authors-

    Culture Matters: How Values Shape Human Progress
    Edited by Lawrence E. Harrison and Samuel P. Huntington
    Basic Books. 348 pp.

    The Twilight of American Culture
    Morris Berman
    Norton. 205 pp.

    I am not an economist, but it is my personal feeling that economics is
    more vibrant a memetic fulcrum than most may admit....
