Henry Giroux is one of America's most important intellectuals. His latest book works brilliantly to inform, inspire, and energize. The Public in Peril may be one of his best books. Not only does Giroux make education central to politics, he also offers a new vision for those ready to engage in the struggle for a radical democracy. Everyone should read this book, especially those hoping to overcoming the growing threat to humanity and the planet posed by neoliberalism and authoritarianism. - Julian Casablancas
This courageous and timely book is the first and best book on Trump's neo-fascism in the making. Henry Giroux is a towering public intellectual unafraid to tell unpopular truths and unintimidated in the commitment to justice for poor and working people here and abroad. His work and witness are signs of hope in our bleak time! - Cornel West
What we have long feared is finally here, at the center of American politics: an authoritarian regime with contempt for truth and human rights. Henry Giroux teaches us how to fight this fascism with a new activism that combines pedagogical and political acts. His analyses are cogent and his proposals reasonable. If you want to save democracy, read this book. - John Carlos Rowe, University of Southern California
In this book, Henry Giroux shows once again why he is among the world's most outstanding social scientists. No one better explicates the multiple pathologies that now characterize the United States and most other advanced capitalist societies. Yet, he maintains a deep and abiding optimism, and bravely tells us of the pressing need for radically critical education in every element of every movement, combined with a politics of disobedience, and the creation of alternative public spaces, from which a new, radically democratic and egalitarian society can be built, from the ground up. - Michael D. Yates, Editorial Director of Monthly Review Press and author of The Great Inequality (Routledge 2016)
