The narcissism of minor differences
7. Peter Baldwin, The Narcissism of Minor Differences: How American and Europe are Alike . I disagree with the premise of this book but nonetheless it may shake them out of their dogmatic slumbers.

2. The Narcissism of Minor Differences: How American and Europe are Alike , by Peter Baldwin. This book offers an onslaught of facts and statistics, toward the aim of showing that the United States and Europe aren't so different after all. You also can read it as a critique of purely statistical reasoning. At the very least, it's a good reference work even though I wasn't convinced by the central thesis.
