Liberal values are summarized with clarity in George Lakoff's book, a short easy read of 120 pages. Every humanist will be energized with a burst of adrenalin and pride as the message of liberal ideas unfolds on every page. As the author writes in the preface, "It is vital for us, for our country, and for the world that we (Liberals) stay united. It is our values that unite us. We must learn to articulate those values loud and clear."

This book is written in the service of helping us reach that goal.

George Lakeoff is Professor of Cognitive Science and Linguistics at the University of California at Berkeley.
