Customer Reviews

Good mix of perspectives

Do you believe church and state should be seperated? Do you have opinions on abortion, same-sex marriage, or the violence or subversive messages in movies? Everyone has an opinion to these questions and issues. Why not understand cultural issues from a larger context? This book offers a multitude of essays from many writers - all with different perspectives and ideas. The essays are highly relevant to today's cultural issues. This book unfortunately is only from a U.S. perspective. As such, it may very well be an appetizer to a much broader issue. This book is a compilation and treasure-trove of ideas from a diverse group of writers. It is highly relevant for today's cultural issues. It should be mandatory reading for everyone.
