The Roger Scruton Reader is the first comprehensive collection
of Scruton's writings, spanning a period of thirty years. It
gathers selections from some of his earliest works such as The
Aesthetics of Architecture (1979) to his most recent Culture Counts
(2007). The book also includes a good number of unpublished essays.
It is made up of five sections - the last section of all contains
some of Scruton's most pugilistic pieces on Dawkins and on The Iraq
War. Scruton holds Burkean political views and his book The Meaning
of Conservatism was a response to the growth of liberalism in the
Conservative party. At all times he is concerned to shift the right
way from economics towards moral issues such as sex education and
censorship laws. But he has in fact written on almost every aspect
of philosophy - always in prose which is accessible and written
with pellucid clarity.
