Description: Product Details Slouching Towards Gomorrah by Robert H. Bork (First Paperback Edition, 1997) ISBN-10 : 0060987197 ISBN-13 : 978-0060987190 Publisher : HarpPeren; Reprint edition (May 9, 1997) Language : English Paperback : 382 pages Item Weight : 12 ounces Dimensions : 1.25 x 5.75 x 8.25 inches BOOK OVERVIEW In this New York Times bestselling book, Robert H. Bork, our country's most distinguished conservative scholar, offers a prophetic and unprecedented view of a culture in decline, a nation in such morally severe trouble that its very foundation is crumbling: a nation that slouches not towards the Bethlehem envisioned by the poet Yeats in 1919, but towards Gomorrah. Slouching Towards Gomorrah is a penetrating, devastatingly insightful exposé of a country in crisis at the end of the millennium, where the rise of modern liberalism, which stresses the dual forces of radical egalitarianism (the equality of outcomes rather than opportunities) and radical individualism (the drastic reduction of limits to personal gratification), has undermined our culture, our intellect, and our morality. Robert H. Bork sounds a very sobering alarm. We can accept our fate and try to insulate ourselves from the effects of a degenerating culture. Alternatively, we can halt the beast to oppose modern liberalism in every arena. In the view of Robert Bork, an understanding of our problem and the will to resist may be our only hope.
