Letters to a Young Contrarian

Sobre el libro Letters to a Young Contrarian de Christopher Hitchens publicado por Basic Book al 2002:

This book explores the entire range of "contrary positions"-from noble dissident to gratuitous pain in the butt. In an age of overly polite debate bending over backward to reach a happy consensus within an increasingly centrist political dialogue, Hitchens pointedly pitches himself in contrast. He bemoans the loss of the skills of dialectical thinking evident in contemporary society.
