The Edge of Reason: A Rational Skeptic in an Irrational World

By Julian Baggini

Book Overview

In this eloquent book a philosopher offers an urgent defense of reason, too often dismissed in today's divisive public discourse. He explores the power and value of reason and calls for a "community of reason" where disagreements are settled by rational debate and discussion in place of brute force or political intimidation.
