Now with a New Preface and Conclusion: 'Post-Truth: On Donald Trump
and the 2016 Election' The United States of America is in the midst
of a deepening crisis for their democracy. After the strangest
election cycle in modern American history it is important that the
grave threats to the American way of life that were glaringly
revealed in this campaign are addressed. In The Assault on Reason,
Nobel Peace Prize winner and former Vice President Al Gore examines
how faith in the power of reason - the idea that citizens can
govern themselves through rational debate - is in peril. Democracy
depends on a well-informed citizenry and a two-way conversation
about ideas, but the public sphere has been degraded by fake news
and the politics of fear, partisanship and blind faith. Now updated
to investigate the rise of Trump and post-truth politics, The
Assault on Reason is a farsighted and powerful manifesto for clear
thinking, crucial if the vitality of democracy is to be rebuilt and
good decisions made once more.
