This title argues that this diagnosis is not primarily religion but rather the strictures of secular rationalism that have drained our modern discourse of force and authenticity.

Rather, he traces the sources of political cynicism to democracy itself. Num Pages: 314 pages. BIC Classification: HPS; JPA; JPHV. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 239 x 166 x 26.
