Detalles del libro
Roger Scruton is that rarest of things: a first-rate philosopher who actually has a philosophy . one of the few intellectually authoritative voices in modern British conservatism -- Jesse Norman ? Spectator
Roger Scruton is one of our great men of speculation -- David Willetts ? Standpoint
A persuasive and poignant little book -- Ferdinand Mount ? The Oldie
Elegantly written and thought-provoking ... I loved this book, especially the way it seems to be aimed as much at the heart as the mind. On both it has a cleansing effect , the equivalent of eating a tart lemon sorbet ? Country Life
Sir Roger Scruton is widely seen as one of the greatest conservative thinkers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries and a polymath who wrote a wide array of fiction, non-fiction and reviews. He was the author of over fifty books.
A graduate of Jesus College, Cambridge, Scruton was Professor of Aesthetics at Birkbeck College, London; University Professor at Boston University, and a visiting professor at Oxford University. He was one of the founders of the Salisbury Review, contributed regularly to The Spectator, The Times and the Daily Telegraph and was for many years wine critic for the New Statesman. Sir Roger Scruton died in January 2020.
