Review:Unlearning Liberty
If
you had told me that the next really good book that I would read on
anything even parenthetically related to politics or the constitution
would have been written by a liberal atheist, I would have been very
dubious. But Unlearning Liberty , about the attack on free speech on college
campuses and the effect that it has on society as a whole, was excellent.
Greg Lukianoff didn't, as is so often the case, ignore the errors of
those he agrees with. The book was an even-handed look at the way
colleges infringe on students' rights and the alarming changes in
attitudes toward free speech. If you are interested in constitutional issues, higher education reform, or the way that our society can--or can't--deal with complex issues, I highly recommend this book.
