In Defense of Hypocrisy: Picking Sides in the War on Virtue,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
"With verve, gusto, and just the right amount of humility, Jeremy Lott argues that hypocrisy isnt as bad as advertised, and that the critics of hypocrisy are often hypocritical themselves. A perfect read and a necessary corrective for this political season." Glenn Reynolds, Instapundit.com"Lott argues convincingly that acts of hypocrisy can be embraced, not dismissed. In this highlyreadable book, he makes the counterintuitive suggestion that hypocrisy is a natural element of the human condition." David Mark, author, Going Dirty: The Art of Negative Campaigning"The popular usage of the term hypocrite is expansive like a shotgun blast, and is often brought in to describe someone we dont like, doing something that we disagree with, involving some sort of perceived contradiction."Its an old familiar routine. Dick accuses Jane of rank hypocrisy, while ignoring his own moral inconsistencies. Jane is outraged by the charge, and fires right back. And author Jeremy Lott? Well hes blowing a wet raspberry at the whole ridiculous spectacle.In Defense of Hypocrisy deconstructs pat prejudices and shallow moralism to probe hypocrisys real significance, asking: Why there is so much hypocrisy, and so much hatred of it? Why do we behave so inconsistently but then denounce those traits in others? Why are people so often fooled by hypocrites? What if hypocrisy is more than just a necessary evil? In fact, what if hypocrisy is also an engine of moral progress?In Defense of Hypocrisy is part political, part religious, part philosophical, and all honesty. Though the word has long since reached epithet status, Lott beckons the reader to see the real virtueimpoverished agendas behind the accusations and embrace a sturdier, more realistic understanding of a muchmaligned vice.The charges have been brought, the jury bought, and the judge clears his throat to hand down the expected judgment:"Hypocrisy is a most damnable offense. . . ""Not so fast," says Jeremy Lott. "I object!"In Defense of Hypocrisy is the case for a mistriala thoughtprovoking, witfilled, morallycharged, rollicking justification of good people who behave badly. Lott tackles the alleged twofacedness of popular targets from Bill Bennett to Dick Morris to Britney Spears. Far from focusing merely on politics, Lott looks at philosophy, history, theology, and pop culture to give the hypocrites their due.This gutsy expose of the corrosive uses of hypocrisy accusations will challenge you to open your mind, hang the jury, and decide for yourself:Is hypocrisy really so bad?
