Perspectives [signed]

Perspectives is a wide-ranging collection of some of Hugh Downs's most interesting, informative, and entertaining essays, adapted from the ten-minute broadcasts that have become his hallmark. His topics include everything from ancient myth to space exploration, and include such subjects as the intangible value of gold, the meaning of true happiness, the trials of lefties in a right-handed world, and the role of the Iroquois Confederacy in shaping American political thought.
