Reviews

A brilliant exploration of the social nature of good reasoning, and why we don't just have the right but the duty to share our opinions-especially when they are thoughtful but unpopular. Sadly, this book is needed now more than ever, as surveys indicate that students feel uncomfortable airing their views in public, and social media accounts are scrutinized for cancel-worthy comments in the distant past. Anyone teaching or learning about free speech, public debate, or good reasoning will profit from this work. Dan Moller, University of Maryland A convincing case for standing up and speaking out. Drawing insights from Mill and Nietzsche, he argues that a life well-lived involves intellectual audacity and a willingness to accept personal risk in speaking our mind. Jonathan Anomaly, Univeristy of Pennsylvania
