Recently released from Lexington Press, this book is a powerful defense of Religious Liberalism as a political/social system. Many parts of the book, from the discussion of the strong historical ties between Liberal ideas and fundamentalist Christian ideas, are fascinating. Libertyoffers an unusual perspective for understanding how fundamentalist religion of any sort can undergo a liberal change - and grow stronger as a result. It also unveils why even fair and free elections aren't necessarily legitimate from a Liberal perspective. It sure makes what's happening with Hamas and Iran and Egypt and Venezuela a whole lot clearer. Written by an Orthodox Jew, the book has an unusual and insightful perspective on these issues. The book can be pre-ordered from Amazon in Hardback and paperback. More than just another political theory book, this text is a compact and comprehensive defense of liberty. What it has to say about the religious origins of liberty, for example, is incredibly relevant today. Fundamentalism and freedom can be partners. The ideas in this book are critically important. For all the guns involved, fundamentally, we are in a war of ideas with Whahabi and Shiite fanatics. To defeat them, we need knowledge - we need to know why our way is the better way and we need to be able to share that with those around us.
