The Closing of the American Mind: How Higher Education Has Failed Democracy and Impoverished the Souls of Today's Students
The brilliant, controversial, bestselling critique of American culture that 'hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy' (The New York Times)--now featuring a new afterword by Andrew Ferguson in a twenty-fifth anniversary edition. In 1987, eminent political philosopher Allan Bloom published The Closing of the American Mind, an appraisal of contemporary America that 'hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy' (The New York Times) and has not only been vindicated, but has also become more urgent today. In clear, spirited prose, Bloom argues that the social and political crises of contemporary America are part of a larger intellectual crisis: the result of a dangerous narrowing of curiosity and exploration by the university elites. Now, in this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, acclaimed author and journalist Andrew Ferguson contributes a new essay that describes why Bloom's argument caused such a furor at publication and why our culture

Bloom
BLOOM is a call to action for those individuals-not only in a later phase of life, but at any age-who feel the call to pursue a creative path in their lives. The pressures of the modern world force many into utilitarian careers early on. Artistic impulses lie unfulfilled, dormant. For some, at a certain point, there comes an ache in the bones, a deep longing for creative expression-a simultaneous sense of emptiness and overflowing feeling. This was the case for the author, Janice Mason Steeves, who left a career in psychology to pursue art in her forties. She went back to school, graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design, and went on to develop an international art career, an art consulting practice, and a highly sought after travel workshop business. Weaving together insights from her own art experience with the stories of 128 artists over the age of sixty, whom Janice surveyed for the book, Bloom offers guidance, inspiration, and support for the often difficult and

Bloom
Keats McCulloch opened his florist shop in Sydney two years ago and he's living his dream. Even though running his own business leaves little room for a personal life, he is very single, sometimes lonely, but otherwise happy. Linden Acres has sworn off men for all eternity. Armed with his cheating boyfriend's credit card and a floriography list, he decides to buy him the perfect farewell gift. The biggest, prettiest bouquet of 'murder flowers' his money can buy. Keats convinces Linden to avoid possible jail time and go with a more subdued, somewhat passive aggressive bouquet of black roses and basil leaves. After all, nothing else says you're dead to me and I hate you with such elegance. Keats finds Linden hilarious and charming, and Linden thinks Keats is kind of wonderful . . . It's too bad he's sworn off men forever. Yet their paths cross again and again, as if fate was planting seeds in the hope that one will bloom. 'I'm more of a green carnations kind of guy.'
