Tim McDaniel Books

Set against the backdrop of the Obama administration, the story follows Andrew Rand, a freshman Democratic representative grappling with a dysfunctional political system and the pressures to conform. His wife, Carolyn, faces her own challenges as she navigates the emotional impact of Andrew's choices while awakening to conservative ideals. The narrative intertwines political satire with the rise of the Tea Party, showcasing diverse characters from various backgrounds, including a determined housewife and a sharp-witted radio host, as they confront a government that has lost touch with its citizens.

What did the Russian revolution of 1917 and the Iranian revolution of 1978-1979 share besides their drama? How can we compare a revolution led by Lenin with one inspired by Khomeini? How is a revolution based primarily on the urban working class similar to one founded to a significant degree on traditional groups like the bazaaris, small craftsmen, and religious students and preachers? Identifying a distinctive route to modernity--autocratic modernization--Tim McDaniel explores the dilemmas inherent in the efforts of autocratic monarchies in Russia and Iran to transform their countries into modern industrial societies.
