Jonathan Lethem: IMG Stops: On Those Things My New Novel Forgot to Be About, Maybe

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This vigorous debate between two distinguished philosophers presents two views on a topic of worldwide importance: the role of religion in politics. Audi argues that citizens in a free democracy should distinguish religious and secular considerations and give them separate though related roles.
