The Lost Art of Drawing the Line

"... dissects the dogmas of fairness that have poisoned American culture with legal fear and selfish demands. With vivid examples--often infuriating, often funny--Philip K. Howard ... exposes the fallacies underlying the regime of 'individual rights.' ... Howard shows how politically correct reforms became the enemy of freedom and the common good. ... he exposes laws and institutions that must be demolished or overhauled-- and presents one idea that must be resurrected--to wrest control from short-sighted, self-interested groups." from publisher's description.
