About the contributors
Reviews
-
Lawler paints a picture that is significantly more interesting, complete, and accurate than that presented by the bulk of the Tocqueville literature.
The Intercollegiate Review
-
A learned and sympathetic profile of Tocqueville and his thought . . .
First Things
-
A wonderful book. It will be impossible for serious Tocqueville scholars to ignore it. It is simply the only book I know of that offers a coherent interpretation of Tocqueville's writings and, indeed, of his life as a whole.
Delba Winthrop, Harvard University
-
. . . highly original and extremely thoughtful . . . everyone interested in liberty can learn from it.
Glenn Tinder, University of Massachusetts
-
. . . opens up new avenues in the study of Tocqueville.
Roger Boesche
-
Lawler's book synthesizes Tocqueville's thought into a convenient, thoughtful, critical analysis of an influential postmodern writer.
