AUTHOR

Shattuck, Roger

SUMMARY

"His book...is remarkable for the author's ability to reject our chronic contemporary relativism, with all its 'lures and perils,' in favor of the creative tension present in ambivalence and even dread: 'Montaigne concludes, like Socrates, that ignorance aware of itself is the only true knowledge' lucidly reminds us that there are times when the best way to keep alert is to keep out."Shattuck, Roger is the author of 'Forbidden Knowledge From Prometheus to Pornography', published 1997 under ISBN 9780156005517 and ISBN 0156005514.
