What distinguishes this collection is its breadth, its liveliness. This valuable book provides much ammunition for . . . unrepentant elitists. — Lisa Zeidner (Philadelphia Inquirer)

A collection of savagely witty essays by a hardy band of cultural commentators who believe things are bad, really bad out there, and are not at all reluctant to say so. — Florence King (National Review)

Provides the best picture we have of the declining and embarrassing condition of discourse in America. — Neil Postman

A terrific book. It is unsettling, arresting, and compelling, and its publication is a public service. — William J. Bennett
