In Seeking Truth and Speaking Truth, Robert George, an acclaimed political philosopher and legal scholar who has taught generations of students at Princeton University and Harvard Law School, tackles many of the most vexing and divisive issues in American politics. He demonstrates what it means to reason one’s way to conclusions on controversial issues, rather than simply following the tribe or the crowd, or allowing oneself to be dragged around by one’s feelings or emotions. George has long proclaimed that it is a teacher’s sacred mission to form his students to be determined truth seekers and courageous truth speakers. In Seeking Truth and Speaking Truth he illustrates that teaching by showing us how it’s done.
