Reviews
"This book is marked by a refreshing clarity of style and a remarkably wide range of reference."Choice, "This book is marked by a refreshing clarity of style and a remarkably wide range of reference." Choice, "In Defense of Humanism is a cool, clear breeze blowing some fairly foul-smelling fog from the corridors of the academy. In scholarly fields marked by obscurity, conformity, and eagerness not to offend, Etlin is willing to walk straight in, speak plainly, and raise the right issues. This is a wonderfully offensive book." Denis Dutton, Philosophy and Literature
