About this title

Synopsis

"You keep saying that word..." So much of today's internet, political discussions, and arguments, boil down to failures of communication. Americans not only disagree about issues-- they can't even agree on what the basic words mean. This book, a glossary of many of the terms at the center of our political and cultural conversations, is not a dictionary. Rather it is almost like an anti-dictionary: it spells out many of the ways the terms (and groups) are misunderstood, across our various philosophical and political divides.
