Mark Bauerlein and Adam Bellow have edited a superb collection of essays on different aspects of American culture and life that extends, deepens, and updates Hofstadter s critique of the naive and feckless naturalism of John Dewey that now pervades and eviscerates ourculture. M. D.Aeschliman, "National Review Online"
In their new book titled "The State of the American Mind," Mark Bauerlein and Adam Bellow, through a compendium of essays written by experts, have outlined using empirical detail and ironclad analysis what exactly has happened to the American mind and what the new anti-intellectualism has done to put it in such a pitiful state. What does this deconstruction of thought look like at a systematic level? "The State of the American Mind," by providing a prismatic analysis of the dereliction of education, psychiatry and public discourse, gives the reader a roadmap to destruction and a trail of breadcrumbsback. . . . ."The State of the American Mind," while far from being light enough to read on an airplane or at the beach, is a 2015 summertime must-read for any conservative who finds him or herself at odds with the state of public discourse in the UnitedStates. . . . .While we may be intellectually lazy, clouded, unmotivated and driven by unbridled emotion devoid of right reason, Bellow and Bauerlein provide thin spaces of light and hope. From start to finish, the carefully curated selection of experts keeps the reader engaged, informed and constantly stimulated. Finally, and most hopefully, among the flotsam and jetsam of a discarded intellectual tradition, one can discern what steps need to be taken to save us from destruction by our own hand or perhaps by our ownmindset. Nate Madden, "Conservative Review"
This anthology will be a distressing but worthwhile read for those who believe traditional American values are endangered and must bepreserved. DanielDreisbach, "Publisher's Weekly"
"The State of the American Mind, "is a must read, especially the chapter written by the political economist and"Wall Street Journal"columnist, NicholasEberstadt." "The MotleyMonk"
"
Enhanced with the inclusion of an engaging Foreword (America: Are We Losing Our Mind?); an informative Introduction (The Knowledge Requirement: What Every American Needs to Know); and a concluding Afterword by the editorial team of Mark Bauerlein and Adam Bellow, "The State of the American Mind: 16 Leading Critics on the New Anti-Intellectualism" is an inherently fascinating read that is exceptionally well organized and presented throughout. Very highlyrecommended. Willis M.Buhle, "Midwest Book Review""
