Who is the 'Devil'? And what is he due? The Devil is anyone who
disagrees with you. And what he is due is the right to speak his
mind. He must have this for your own safety's sake because his
freedom is inextricably tied to your own. If he can be censored,
why shouldn't you be censored? If we put barriers up to silence
'unpleasant' ideas, what's to stop the silencing of any discussion?
This book is a full-throated defense of free speech and open
inquiry in politics, science, and culture by the New York Times
bestselling author and skeptic Michael Shermer. The new collection
of essays and articles takes the Devil by the horns by tackling
five key themes: free thought and free speech, politics and
society, scientific humanism, religion, and the ideas of
controversial intellectuals. For our own sake, we must give the
Devil his due.
