Truthfully, I wouldn't mind so much if history books (and others) contained a one page viewpoint summation at the front. If the authors want to declare:

1) We support one world government.
2) We oppose the influence of Judeo-Christian culture in modern society.
3) We believe ownership of private property is morally wrong.

Then have at it. Go the parents and the school committees and say, "Please spend $50,000 buying this book."

I do not disagree that there is always bias. My problem is that the authors try so hard to HIDE their bias -- because they know that no one would buy the product if the people really KNEW what it was they were buying.

Exactly!
