The classical ideal of a liberal arts education has long been under attack. Specifically, the idea of reason and its concomitants--objectivity, truth, and knowledge--are now systematically dismissed as the function of \u003cem\u003eWhite Privilege\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eracism\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003epatriarchy\u003c\/em\u003e, etc. by the postmodern leftist ideologues dominating colleges and universities. The assault against liberal learning is nothing less than an assault against the civilization--the West--that produced this ideal. There are, however, some academic dissidents who remain committed to the ideal of a liberal arts education. This book, written for an educated laity, is one dissident's attempt to defend the ideal by bringing attention to the assaults to which it's routinely subjected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 136\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.32 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 17, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42735922085984,"sku":"9781941071878","price":29.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/vtL2XhlMoN9781941071878.webp?v=1777809189","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/higher-miseducation-a-dissidents-essays-on-the-assault-against-liberal-learning-paperback","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
