About This Book
"Aimed at the regular, enquiring reader rather than the academic specialist, Grant's volume brings together some of the most memorable pieces from his prolific output published since 1982.".
"Conservative, but sceptical and non-partisan, these essays concern the inability of abstract theories to comprehend, let alone prescribe for, the things which most matter to us, namely morals, politics, art, and culture at all levels from the high to the popular. They deal with the threat to our cultural traditions offered by socialist hubris and liberal indifference, and (more optimistically) with culture's own spontaneous power of resistance, renewal and self-repair."--BOOK JACKET.
