Heresies : Against Progress And Other Illusions

Author: Gray, John

Blasphemy, heresy, apostasy

Published on 1 September 2004 by GRANTA BOOKS in the United Kingdom.

By the author of the best-selling Straw Dogs, this book is a characteristically trenchant and unflinchingly clear-sighted collection of reflections on our contemporary lot. Whether writing about the future of our species on this planet, the folly of our faith in technological progress, or the self-deceptions of the liberal establishment, John Gray dares to be heretical like few other thinkers today.
