Summary: Discusses the culture of the US that has become anti-intellectual. All talks about the different events through American history that have encourage our current society to be anti- intellectual. She identifies two main causes and analyzes their influence over time.

Recommendation: I would for someone interested in this topic. I would not recommend it to a casual reader or a younger reader. I myself skimmed much of it and read parts that seemed most interesting. There is a lot of interesting facts you can learn from the book, so if you're a facts person you'll enjoy it.
