Decline of Radicalism

About this book

The Decline of Radicalism is a symptom, as Professor Boorstin explains, of our movement from Experience (the appeal to what we share) to Sensation (the appeal to what is inexpressible, ineffable). In this book Boorstin draws on our everyday experience to give us clues both to our tradition and to what has made it, and to our current disorders. The reader will find unexpected answers to our most common questions.
