Bloomsbury presents Against the Tide by Roger Scruton and Mark Dooley, read by Kris Dyer.

'His moral courage shines through from the start.' – Sunday Telegraph

The definitive edition of the late Sir Roger Scruton's philosophical and political essays and reviews, now collected in one volume.

The philosopher Roger Scruton was the leading conservative thinker of the post-war years. In this book are assembled the very best of his essays and commentaries, arranged thematically. The selection has been made and edited by Mark Dooley, Scruton’s literary executor.

Throughout this collection, Scruton proves himself to be at his most scintillating and controversial. He writes with passion and conviction about such varied topics as feminism, racism, fascism, Tony Blair and Donald Trump, as well as subjects like global warming, music and architecture. He takes aim at those who defy conservative common sense in favour of liberal falsehoods.

This book shows Scruton at his most brilliant and demonstrates how his influence will remain strong and enduring.©2022 Roger Scruton (P)2022 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Reseñas de la crítica

Every piece is a masterclass in prose style and a reminder of how he earned such widespread popular affection…His moral courage shines through from the start.
This is inspirational thought delivered by graceful language about politics and aesthetics that will continue to attract and influence readers.
… A brilliantly stimulating selection of the journalism by the late Sir Roger Scruton… These are little masterpieces of philosophical polemic.
The writings expertly collected in Against the Tide go a long way to illuminating Scruton's humane and dignified conservatism.
On every page, the reader encounters a mind passionately at work, seeking to reconcile everyday problems with a moral sense.
Against the Tide is a concise but rich selection of some of Scruton’s writings for various journals, magazines, and newspapers … What a pleasure to see so many of these pieces back in print … it is hard to imagine a better introduction to Scruton’s work than this wonderful, endlessly readable volume. (Douglas Murray)
Over 40 years of Scruton’s columns and commentaries, published and unpublished, as well as diary entries are gifted to us in this remarkably concise but substantive volume.
Reading Scruton will help us rekindle the search for what is good, true, and beautiful, and, more importantly, recognize them (and their opposites) when we see them.
A collection of his finest writing.
Scruton stood apart in Britain as a thinker. His writing continues to illuminate, and he is sorely missed.
