Review
All of the qualities of mind for which Nisbet is famous are fully displayed in this marvelous book―his philosophical profundity, his mastery of history, his biting wit, his moral outrage, his uncommon sense. Nisbet’s dictionary will inevitably be compared to its Voltairean model, but I myself prefer to think of it as one of the great examples of the American jeremiad. In my library Prejudices will stand between the sermons of Jonathan Edwards and the eruptions of Mark Twain. (Kenneth S. Lynn)

What a bloody wonderful book! What a perfect idea! And the perfect author! My position is that no future book should ever be written on any of the subjects touched. (William F. Buckley, Jr.)

Robert Nisbet’s new book I thought extremely good―remarkable for its clarity and wit, as perceptive as it is intelligent, a welcome voice of reason in a debate too often given over to pedants and ideologues. (Lewis H. Lapaham) –This text refers to the Paperback edition.
