Think Again : Contrarian Reflections on Life, Culture, Politics, Religion, Law, and Education, Hardcover by Fish, Stanley Eugene, ISBN 0691167710, ISBN-13 9780691167718, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Selected from some 300 columns, author Fish wrote for the New York Times from 1995 to 2013, these essays cover the personal, political, aesthetical, cultural, legal, religious, educational, and academic freedom. He aims to promote critical thinking as opposed to providing opinions. He placed them in an order intended to bring out connections and themes that were perhaps not evident in their serial publication over a long period. Fish writes that his columns are less likely to declare a position on a disputed matter than to anatomize and perhaps critique the arguments deployed by opposing constituencies. Eight chapters are divided into eight parts: personal reflections; aesthetic reflections; cultural reflections; reflections on politics; reflections on the law; reflections on religion; reflections on liberal arts education; reflections on academic freedom.
