Trade Review"An outstanding book, one of the most engaging and provocative I've read in some time. Douglas Farrow openly and unapologetically draws on a rich, non-secular intellectual tradition that people of any faith (or of none) ought to find valuable. Desiring a Better Country is erudite, insightful, and eloquent." Stephen D. Smith, Warren Distinguished Professor of Law, University of San Diego "Written with an exceptional clarity of style, the genuine dialectical spirit of Desiring a Better Country respects both the reader and the complexity of the questions tackled, so that one feels invited to judge by oneself, as one should." Thomas de Koninck, Professor of Philosophy, Universite Laval "Douglas Farrow is one of North America's most trenchant, insightful analysts of the cultural confusions that are creating the 21st-century crisis of democracy. Serious people will pay serious attention to what he writes." George Weigel , Distinguished Senior Fellow, Ethics and Public Policy Center, Washington, DC
