His best known book is Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2004), in which Perkins claims to have played a role in an alleged process of economic colonization of Third World countries on behalf of what he portrays as a cabal of corporations, banks, and the United States government. The book's claims were met with skepticism and rebuttal by some, but spent more than 70 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, has been published in at least 32 languages,[1] and is used in many college and university programs.[2] Perkins has also written about mystical aspects of indigenous cultures, including shamanism.[citation needed] John Perkins (author) - Wikipedia
