| Zusammenfassung: | "In the selections reprinted here, Midge Decter surveys American culture and finds a real mess: 'If we Americans cannot be said to have gone mad, we have certainly been getting nuttier by the day.' She directs us down two paths to sanity: a return to respect for the wisdom of our forefathers, and profound gratitude for the bountiful goods we enjoy in this wonderful country. To feminists she offers particular counsel: End your futile war against nature, and surrender to it. Midge Decter draws her insight from her own unusual experience. She has, as the song lyric puts it, looked at life from both sides now- liberal and conservative. She journeyed from the left to the right on a one-way ticket and is here to stay, always right. It was a remarkable journey, and you will discover in this volume why Midge Decter is one of the most remarkable minds on the American scene" -- Provided by publisher |
