Mini-Review

The subtitle (‘How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure’) says it all… sort of. The authors criticise extremes of wokeness on university campuses and explain why so much emphasis on preventing students’ mental discomfort it is ultimately bad for students’ wellbeing.

Interesting thesis, although sometimes the examples, although real, are laughably extreme. It’s also sometimes like shooting fish in a barrel. This book started life as an article for The Atlantic, and that was probably a better length for it.
