Description
Free Speech and Why It Matters by Andrew Doyle is a timely defence of this foundational principle. In recent years, concerns about language have led to a national debate on acceptable speech, with governments and tech giants weighing in. However, these trends pose a threat to the freedoms that our ancestors fought and died to secure. Andrew Doyle addresses head-on the most common concerns of free speech sceptics, offering a robust defence of this principle. He provides a balanced and comprehensive overview of the issue, making for a thought-provoking read. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in understanding the importance of free speech and its relevance to our modern world.
