As it "illuminates the crisis of liberal education and offers proposals for reform which deserve full debate" (Morton Halperin, American Civil Liberties Union), "Illiberal Education" "documents how the politics of race and gender in our universities are rapidly eating away traditions of scholarship and reward for individual achievement" (Robert H. Bork). (Education/Teaching)

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Neoconservative former White House policy analyst D'Souza adds a new introduction to this hard-hitting condemnation of preferential treatment for minority applicants to universities; this was a PW bestseller for three weeks.may 24-june 7 issues
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From Library Journal

This book is sure to generate controversy. The author's thesis is that affirmative action policies in college admissions, and the higher education establishment's zealous pursuit of a curriculum that reflects the new orthodoxy of multiculturalism (which calls for increased minority admissions and privileges, more minority-based classes, more minorities on faculties) promote ignorance and racism. D'Souza, a former White House domestic policy analyst, supports his views with extensive interviews and studies conducted on six college campuses. The new victims, he feels, are the high academic achievers who are assumed to rejected for fear of overrepresentation (various Asian minorities). The debate has already begun over D'Souza's engaging and thought-provoking book. Articles featuring it appeared in Atlantic Monthly (February) and are forthcoming in Read er's Digest and Forbes in April. For most libraries.

Dsouza exposes academia.

February 22, 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Jared Taylor in the classroom. Dinesh's book here is a systematic dismantling of the modern university. He exposes the entire operation as being a cheap quota program where the unqualified are admitted into Ivy League universities simply because of their race or sex. He shows us how absolutely no-one benefits from these Affirmative Action or forced diversity programs, and he reminds us of the fact that universities are the most intellectually-conforming cesspools of decay infecting our society--and he writes all this from the vantage point of over 25 years ago! He must be horrified now with what happened at Berkeley with Milo. This is an amazing book that anyone who has gone through university should read.

Well worth reading if you have had exposure to the more classical approach to the humanities and...

a University education. The author highlights the hypocrisy of University faculties in dealing with the forces that have morphed a liberal education into one with, for all intents and purposes, no content and no defined aim or goal except for the political agenda of the influential powers (moneyed contributors and government and financially powerful minority groups). In an indirect way, he shows how it is possible to spend four years at a university and emerge with almost no knowledge of the foundation of the world in which they live, whether it be in the West or elsewhere. Students are thoroughly cleansed of any notion of principles or timeless truth, leaving only personal whim and "relativism" as a paradigm for understanding their world and interacting with society.

It would be well if everyone educated at a university since the 70s were to read this and give careful consideration to its content. And don't expect any academician to approve of the book's contents; their very existence in the currently politicized university environment depends on their buying into the concepts that have made such a shift in higher education possible.

One wonders how much of a contribution of such elimination of a foundation for a world-view influences the marked increase in suicide in younger folks.

No wonder America is in such a mess!

August 23, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Given that this book was written 25 years ago it's not at all difficult to see why the United States is having the problems it is having today, considering that most politicians are college grads with degrees in law or political science.

Collecting D'Souza works. I guess I have become a great fan. Hoping to track his scholarship and growth over the decades. Besides, he always speaks researched and documented facts, much appreciated these days.

University Professors agree

February 7, 2007

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This was a great book, well written and argued. There is nothing at all right wing, or hateful about this book. This work points out the pitfalls of political correctness. It is unfortunately all too true. The arguments made show the weakness and downright racism of affirmative action. The far left can do nothing except try to put this book down as "right wing" or "hate speech". This book really shows that there is no logic to their argument.

Affirmative action 's flip side

August 24, 2007

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Affirmative action beneficiaries that got into the college of their choice, how many of them graduated with a practicle degree? Is our country moving towards a mediocrecy society? Why are we being left behind in math and science in the high school compare to the rest of the world? Why are 40% of the science and math PhDs are awarded to foreign students? Why aren't we persueing the excellence in academic instead of baby sitting the victimology mentality?
