Not With a Bang But a Whimper by Theodore Dalrymple

Not With a Bang But a Whimper by Theodore Dalrymple

In Not with a Bang But a Whimper, Dalrymple takes the measure of our cultural decline, with special attention to Britain-its bureaucratic muddle, oppressive welfare mentality, and aimless young-all pursued in the name of democracy and freedom. He shows how terrorism and the growing numbers of Muslim minorities have changed our public life. Also here are Mr. Dalrymple's trenchant observations on artists and ideologues, and on the treatment of criminals and the mentally disturbed, his area of medical interest.

MrDalrymple illuminates with great clarity and precision some of the most difficult problems of our times. * The Washington Times *
Beautifully written, insightful, and often sad. * Neofusionist *
Brilliant essays. * Conservative Book Club *
