Thanks to a careful genealogy hailing back to unexpected ancestors like Martin Luther, this book deconstructs values-speech. It reveals how well-meaning people are hoist by their own petard when their values-speech ultimately encourages the kind of subjectivism, relativism, and social rivalry that they would like to eliminate. Harold replaces values with the common good, looked for in friendship and actuated in loyalty. This is a book I wish I'd written.
