À propos de cet audio
 Bloomsbury presents The Madness of Crowds written and read by Douglas Murray.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
A Times and Sunday Times Book of the Year

Updated with a new afterword by the author

'Douglas Murray fights the good fight for freedom of speech ... A truthful look at today's most divisive issues' – Jordan B. Peterson

'[Murray’s] latest book is beyond brilliant and should be read, must be read, by everyone' – Richard Dawkins

Are we living through the great derangement of our times?

In The Madness of Crowds Douglas Murray investigates the dangers of ‘woke’ culture and the rise of identity politics. In lively, razor-sharp prose he examines the most controversial issues of our moment: sexuality, gender, technology and race, with interludes on the Marxist foundations of ‘wokeness’, the impact of tech and how, in an increasingly online culture, we must relearn the ability to forgive.

One of the few writers who dares to counter the prevailing view and question the dramatic changes in our society – from gender reassignment for children to the impact of transgender rights on women – Murray’s penetrating book, now published with a new afterword taking account of the book's reception and responding to the worldwide Black Lives Matter protests, clears a path of sanity through the fog of our modern predicament.©2019 Douglas Murray (P)2019 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Idéologies et doctrines Liberté et sécurité Politique Justice sociale Inspirant Discrimination Libéralisme Du contenu qui fait réfléchir Mouvement social Socialisme Identity Politics

Ce que les critiques en disent

Douglas Murray fights the good fight for freedom of speech ... A truthful look at today's most divisive issues (Jordan B. Peterson, bestselling author of 12 Rules for Life)
[Murray’s] latest book is beyond brilliant and should be read, must be read, by everyone. He mercilessly exposes the hypocrisy and embarrassingly blatant contradictions that run rife through the current ‘woke’ vogue. (Richard Dawkins)
Whether one agrees with him or not, Douglas Murray is one of the most important public intellectuals today. (Bernard-Henri Lévy)
How can you not know about The Madness of Crowds? It’s actually the book I’ve just finished. You can’t just not read these books, not know about them. (Tom Stoppard)
Simply brilliant. Reading it to the end, I felt as though I’d just drawn my first full breath in years. At a moment of collective madness, there is nothing more refreshing – or, indeed, provocative – than sanity. (Sam Harris, author of five New York Times bestsellers and host of the Making Sense podcast.)
An abomination (Titania McGrath, author of Woke: A Guide to Social Justice)
This is an author who specialises in expressing what everyone sort of knows already and is afraid to say ... well argued, well supported and well observed (The Times)
Graceful and witty
Necessary and provocative
Impressive and lively … Murray’s comprehensive survey of the prevailing madness will not persuade every reader. But it raises the real questions of our times. (Roger Scruton)
Murray’s book performs a great service
Fascinating … Much of what Murray writes is pertinent and hard to disagree with
Murray is a superbly perceptive guide through the age of the social justice warrior
Murray’s book raises urgent questions about how people should conduct themselves in today’s age of “wokeness”’
Murray's was the third critical interrogation of this subject that I read this summer, and it is the best.
A profoundly helpful insight on the hysteria of cancel culture. (Saba Douglas-Hamilton)

Douglas Murray is a boon to this age we find ourselves it. It was a delight to hear someone approach these topics with intelligence and compassion. He is articulate and thoughtful, giving some much needed perspective to the issues herein, and asking some excellent questions.
His narration is enjoyable to listen to and while he shared both data, stories, and opinion, it flowed nicely and was extremely engaging!
I highly recommend this book.

Excellent book, well thought out and presented

a comprehensive insight into the chaos of our time, only just falling short of providing a clear path through the wreck but reminding us again of the previous one we had been on, a path of true equality & acceptance

phenomenal

I love this book. It's hard to argue against a rational point of view. We can only hope that the social pendulum is almost ready to swing the other way, before it's too late.

Finally, someone who speaks the truth
