Rezensionen
'Why Not Moderation? provides a sturdy vindication of the concept as a muscular virtue. It also serves as an instructive and timely stimulus for understanding the importance of humility, prudence, and complexity in building up and conserving the delicate achievements of Western civilization from which radicals and moderates of all stripes benefit. That message alone should warrant applause, especially in an age when there remains a zealous yearning to burn shrubs to the ground rather than trim their imperfections.' National Review
