Compare Voltaire's Bastards by John Ralston Saul, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In this provocative analysis of modern society, John Ralston Saul shows that throughout the West there is a crisis, due largely to our blind faith in reason. Instead of a basis for ethical behavior, reason is often reduced to mere practicality. If we continue to allow process-minded experts, “Voltaire’s bastards," to run society, we risk the breakdown of our legal, financial, and cultural systems, thus endangering our societies. | Voltaire's Bastards by John Ralston Saul, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
