- Summary:
- "Bound to be highly controversial, this book makes important and much needed points, and does so with first-rate scholarly analysis. By defending traditional and indeed sensible positions on marriage, family, children, and procreation that are far from 'politically correct, ' David Tubbs offers a refreshing and needed supplement to the positions commonly taken in academia."--Steven D. Smith, University of San Diego
- "Not only will this book stimulate and inform scholars in a range of disciplines--from social science, history, and political philosophy to child development--but the general public should and will also take an interest. In clear terms, and through careful, balanced, and fruitful research, Tubbs illuminates the weaknesses and dangers arising from the constitutional jurisprudence of such figures as John Rawls and Ronald Dworkin."--Daniel N. Robinson, Georgetown University
