I've avoided Amazon.com
Because of their stupid one-click patent position. I'm not sure they still have it, but today I did a search at Amazon whose "suggestions" pissed me off. I searched for the Spirit of Laws (looking for the 2001 edition, which will be unabridged, compared to the 1973(bad) edition I have) and I did a search for Considerations on Representative Government (Hume, whose philosophy I've always had a soft spot for), which I have to admit I haven't read, and the worst pigs, Amazon.com, suggested Fareed Zakaria. As if that tool has anything but contempt for Republics.
