On C-SPAN 1, Lamb Q[uestions] & Thomas Sowell A[nswers] (8:00 p.m. and again 11:00). Now Rose and Milton Friedman Senior Fellow at The Hoover Institution, Sowell’s Ph.D. in economics is from the University of Chicago. The link (which is the same as above) gives much information. His publications are numerous: the first is Economics and Analysis, published in 1971, and his last, Black Rednecks and White Liberals: And Other Cultural and Ethnic Issues, came out in 2005. Others include The Quest for Cosmic Justice (1999) and A Conflict of Visions: Ideological Origins of Political Struggles (1987).

C-Span-2’s In-Depth monthly feature interviews Robert Kaplan Sun at noon – when listeners can call in or e-mail questions; this is repeated at midnight. E-mail connection is up on the site. Kaplan, a correspondent for Atlantic Monthly, has reported on the hot spots of the last twenty years. His last book is Mediterranean Winter. His Warrior Politics was the first book on Andrew Sullivan’s short-lived book club blog. During the past few years, such works as The Coming Anarchy, Balkan Ghosts and Soldiers of God: With the Mujahidin in Afghanistan were often referred to as we tried to understand the places he had been. Not surprisingly, such interests have made him a voice listened to by
