3.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant polymath digresses, November 8, 2007

This review is from: Romance in the Ivory Tower: The Rights and Liberty of Conscience (Hardcover)
It's a strange quirky little book, mainly useful I think to anyone involved in defending a case of academic sexual impropriety. I opened it thinking "how can anyone possibly justify such a practice? (professors having romantic relationships with students) but after a few pages I thought "maybe he has a point." Then I began wondering how anyone could write a whole book on such a topic but as I read on and found him digressing brilliantly about the rules of soccer, Jefferson's Letter to the Danbury Baptists, eighteenth century Philadelphia, the Mormons, and Freud's theories I was charmed and kept turning the pages.
