Dan Cullen's excellent and timely new book on liberal education includes some of the most provocative and thoughtful thinkers of our time-Bill McClay, Robby George, John Agresto-who tackle the tough question about how free education should be in a free society. Can it, should it, tell the truth? Going against the grain of political correctness in America today, they insist on telling the truth, and they hold out good hope that the nation and its citizens will be the better for it. -- Colleen Sheehan, Villanova University

Going against the grain of political correctness in America today, they insist on telling the truth, and they hold out good hope that the nation and its citizens will be the better for it. -- Colleen Sheehan, Villanova University Daniel Cullen has assembled some of America's leading thinkers on liberal democracy and liberal education to consider an old but still pressing question: what type of education is suited to a free people such that they might enjoy, and maintain, their freedom? The contributions are fascinating on their own terms, and they interact with one another in surprisingly fresh ways. Essential reading for anyone who cares about the formation of democratic citizens. -- Bradley C. S. Watson, Saint Vincent College
