Editorial Reviews

Review

"If parents value college not just as a degree mill but as a chance to improve their children's minds, they should pay heed to this disturbing book."-- "The Wall Street Journal""Kors and Silvergate.deliver the unexpected. Refreshingly, they seem to believe then even if professors teach what they wish, Western civilization will survive.The abuses they describe need fixing, and this cogent book should help."-- "The New York Times""Besides shaking readers out of their complacency, the tales of abuse lend urgency to their call for renewed openness on college campuses. "-- "Booklist""No longer do universities prize the unihibited clash of ideas and opinions. On campuses from sea to shining sea, political correctness is the ruling orthodoxy and The Right Not To Be Offended trumps every consideration..."The Shadow University" sends up an unignorable flare."-- "The Boston Globe""An eye-opening and well-documented expose....a wake-up call for parents, students, and professors alike."-- Alan M. Dershowitz, Harvard Law School
