Like most books like this, the point is made within the first 4 or 5 chapters. After that it‘s just most examples to prove the point. And I agree with the points made. Yes, we are challenged as a society. We are motivated so much by self-esteem and feelings that the truth and challenging what is wrong gets muffled and silenced out of fear. It is a good book. With good points.
The fact people are okay with, even happy with, a time widely and opening known as “post truth” is troubling… and shows that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Study Buddy!
Sitting in store parking lot, studying, while my husband looks for some Labor Day sales.
This was based on an article that the authors had previously written, so I was basically listening to an extended research paper. I would recommend passing on this one unless you are really into the first amendment and social trends. An issue with this one is timeliness, there have been so many more controversial events since it was published but I felt compelled to read/listen after a recommendation from our company CEO.
