Combatants on both sides of the Culture Wars would profit from social and historical analysis removed from the polemics of the moment. Yet while the last 150 years have produced several brilliant studies of cultural decline, their imposing length and complexity put off all but the most intrepid non-specialists. B.G. Brander has bridged this gap, deftly rendering these great works accessible to the educated lay reader.
