Industry Reviews

“In a culture that is rapidly reaching the bottom, even the most rebellious and self-absorbed are finally realizing the power of traditional values. That’s why there couldn’t be a better time for Dean Abbott’s new book Common Good. This powerful reminder of the lessons and values that built Western civilization could be a roadmap out of the chaos.”
—Phil Cooke, author of The Way Back: How Christians Blew Our Credibility and How We Get It Back

“For some time now, modern theorists have informed us that we can be happy without virtue. They’ve even outlined political orders premised on the notion that we live ‘after virtue,’ as Alastair MacIntyre put it. We are reminded everyday of how wrong smart people can be. My friend Dean Abbott has done us the great favor of publishing an old-fashioned book on old-fashioned virtues. But virtues are not a matter of fashion, they’re a matter of moral fact. Read this book and put what you learn into practice, and you’ll never go out of fashion either.”
—C. R. Wiley, author of The Household and the War for the Cosmos
