This anthology of essays from six distinguished writers, edited and with an essay by Christopher Merrill, invites critical scrutiny of what it means to make informed judgments and decisions, how the arts can help us understand conflict, the place of religion in the formation of identity, and the nature of expertise itself. With additional essays by Nushin Arbabzadah, Reza Aslan, Christina Lamb, Steve Clemons, and Sarah E. Lewis, this collection explores the many ways we explain our culture and portray other societies, while illuminating our most pressing concerns. The book is free for download here.
