Winner of three book awards, The Lavender Scare masterfully traces the origins of contemporary sexual politics to Cold War hysteria over national security. Drawing on newly declassified documents and interviews with former government officials, historian David Johnson chronicles how the myth that homosexuals threatened national security determined government policy for decades, ruined thousands of lives, and pushed many to suicide. As Johnson shows, this myth not only outlived McCarthy but, by the 1960s, helped launch a new civil rights struggle.

Toute philosophie est un combat. Son arme ? La bêtise, le fanatisme, l'obscurantisme. Ses alliées ? Les sciences. Son objet ? Le tout, avec l'homme dedans. Ou l'homme, mais dans le tout. Son bût ? La sagesse : le bonheur, mais dans la vérité.

La philosophie n'est pas seulement une aventure : elle est aussi un travail, qui ne va pas sans efforts, sans lectures, sans outils. Qu'est-ce que la philosophie ?
