Susan Jacoby | The Age of American Unreason
Parkway Central Library
Cost: FREE
Pulitzer Prize finalist and author of the bestselling Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism, Susan Jacoby is program director of the Center for Inquiry’s New York area branch and the recipient of numerous grants and awards. In The Age of American Unreason, Jacoby offers an unsparing indictment of the American addiction to infotainment and cites this dependency as the major element distinguishing our current age of unreason from earlier outbreaks of American anti-intellectualism and anti-rationalism.
