"This is simply the best book yet written on how the corruption
of identity politics insinuated itself intoand then began to
reinventAmerican academia. It shows how classic liberalisms
great aspirationthe free individual free to choosewas betrayed
over and over again for the fruitless and fleeting leverage of group
identity. Bawers interviews with the smooth practitioners of
group politicssalesmen whove sold themselves firstare
stunning for their pathos. If this book was required reading at
every freshman orientation in the country, it would start a
revolution. It tells a story that Americans must hear."
Shelby Steele,
Senior Fellow, The Hoover Institution, Stanford University
Bawer scores lots of entertaining points against the insufferable posturing and unreadable prose that
pervades identity studies....a lively, cantankerous takedown of a juicy target.
