In Vexed, James Mumford tackles the polarization of civil society across the democratic West, taking a fresh look at the existential questions and 'hot button' issues that are an essential part of the politics of the Left and Right. In examining issues like the 'right-to-die' movement and assisted suicide, family values and economic injustice, sexual liberation and consent, gun-control and abortion, the environment and technology, criminal justice and reform, Mumford questions the basic assumptions of our political groups. His challenge is simple: 'Why should believing strongly about one topic mean the automatic adoption of so many others?'
With this refreshing and eye-opening book, James Mumford, a public thinker and independent commentator, has written an essential and provocative account that will appeal to anyone of independent thought, and a welcome call for new reflection on the moral issues most relevant to our modern way of life.
