争取两性平等、争取种族平等……一切的平等都是值得争取的。有人反对为了结果的看似平等用不同标准来替代同一标准,认为在起点上要平等,提供平等竞争机会,而不是用工作与受教育机会(指大学)的配额制的终点平等……看起来很完美的结论。 但是,事情总有不如意。...
评分虽然作者关于动物主义和环境主义一些看法我不认同,但是作者是个真男人:敢说美国真正需要听的话,而不管它是否愿意听。很多时候美好的愿望并不能带来美好的结果,平等也并不是相同,平等可以透过差异体现,万物平等,来自一个本源,世界还不是照样如此丰富多彩。平等本来...

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning culture critic for Time magazine comes the tremendously controversial, yet highly persuasive, argument that our devotion to the largely unexamined myth of egalitarianism lies at the heart of the ongoing "dumbing of America."
Americans have always stubbornly clung to the myth of egalitarianism, of the supremacy of the individual average man. But here, at long last, Pulitzer Prize-winning critic William A. Henry III takes on, and debunks, some basic, fundamentally ingrained ideas: that everyone is pretty much alike (and should be); that self-fulfillment is more imortant thant objective achievement; that everyone has something significant to contribute; that all cultures offer something equally worthwhile; that a truly just society would automatically produce equal success results across lines of race, class, and gender; and that the common man is almost always right. Henry makes clear, in a book full of vivid examples and unflinching opinions, that while these notions are seductively democratic they are also hopelessly wrong.
