The new dark age: why liberals must win the culture wars
by Nigel Biggar
On the shelf? Just pop in.
In an increasingly polarised age, culture wars are everywhere. They are often criticised as superficial or confected disagreements designed to distract us from more important issues. Is this true, or are they rather more fundamental than that? In this thoughtful and passionate intervention, renowned theologian and moral philosopher Nigel Biggar argues that 'culture wars' are in fact political and moral debates that cut to the very quick of some of the most substantial questions of our time, ranging from the welfare of children to the way we conceive and manage ethnic and cultural differences in diverse societies.
