This book is an excellent example of a kind of public intellectualism that is all too rare."--Jeffrey C. Isaac, author of The Poverty of Progression "Robert Ivie is a first-rate scholar, and this book shows a stunning mastery of the scholarship and journalism converging on the topic. He writes clearly and authoritatively on everything from Greek ideas about democracy and rhetoric to yesterday's speech by a politician. This is an important book deserving a wide readership."--Jay Mechling, author of On My Honor: Boy Scouts and the Making of American Youth
