I am a avid reader of David Brook's column in the NY Times and I enjoy his comments, most of the time anyway, on the Lehler Newshour.

I think this is a very misleading title and the blurb by William Bennett was surely written for a book other than this one. I gave this a two star rating only because the writing itself was professional. Fr. True.
