Himmelfarb, Gertrude. "Judging Richard Posner." Commentary Magazine. February, 2002.

Excerpt:

In his introduction, Posner, perhaps the most prolific and widely cited legal theorist of our day, informs us that his editor, having read a review by him of my One Nation, Two Cultures (1999), suggested that he write a book inquiring into the “deficiencies” of public intellectuals in general.
