it was amazing

The Coddling of the American Mind is a very insightful and fair book. It tackles issues within both the political left and the political right. The book mainly focuses in on college campuses which have become increasingly left-wing but the authors also zoom out and look at the poor reactions from right-wing fringe groups and even mainstream conservatism.

The two authors have presented a strong case for free speech and a renewed sense of trust in the American people to be able to sift through different ideas and make smart choices about which ones reign true and which ones prove false.

Highly recommend!
