ON DIVERSITY - RUSSELL JACOBY KARTONIERT (TB)

It could be argued and esteemed historian of ideas Russell Jacoby does so here that the less
diversity there is  the more we talk about it. But what does the term actually mean? Where does
it come from? What are its intellectual precedents? Moreover  how do we square our recognition
of the importance of diversity with the fact that the world is becoming more and more  well 
homogeneous? In fine prose and lucid argument  Jacoby puts our volatile present into historical
context. Examining diversity (or lack thereof) in language  fashion  childhood experience 
political structure  and the history of ideas  Jacoby offers a surprising and penetrating
analysis of our cultural moment  and invites his readers to participate in the most dangerous
and liberating act: to stop and think.
