Title: For Common Things is an uncommonly thoughtful read
Review: Cogent, uncluttered & absorbing thoughts from a centered young man in this modern college world. Drawing on a wide range of sources from Henry David Thoreau to Jerry Seinfeld; from Edmund Burke to Alexis de Tocqueville to the Bible, this little book is all about the health of living in the public life of a democracy & the world of nations at large upon this varied & much trammeled planet.Jedediah Purdy's thoughts range from avoiding the world to gene therapy; from the business world to the practice of politics; from the meanings of words to the meaning of public responsibility. It has a splendid Bibliography, a useful Index & something to say. Made me take another look at life here in these United States - how we got to where we are & why. An impressive first effort!
