'His moral courage shines through from the start.' - Sunday Telegraph The definitive edition of the late Sir Roger Scruton's philosophical and political essays and reviews, now collected in one volume. The philosopher Roger Scruton was the leading conservative thinker of the post-war years. In this book are assembled the very best of his essays and commentaries, arranged thematically. The selection has been made and edited by Mark Dooley, Scruton's literary executor. Throughout this collection, Scruton proves himself to be at his most scintillating and controversial. He writes with passion and conviction about such varied topics as feminism, racism, fascism, Tony Blair and Donald Trump, as well as subjects like global warming, music and architecture. He takes aim at those who defy conservative common sense in favour of liberal falsehoods. This book shows Scruton at his most brilliant and demonstrates how his influence will remain strong and enduring.

Review This Product

Some of the finest, most sensible thinking on the planet.

Tue, 23 Aug 2022 | Review by: Lindsay R.

Roger Scruton is the voice of reason, wisdom and common sense. Uncompromisingly conservative, humorous, incisive, his thoughts on life in these times are penetrating and more intelligent than anybody else. This book contains his more easily accessible writings and quite simply, if you have a need for a deeper worldview, this is the man.
