Political Correctness: A Sociocultural Black Hole

This book explores the nature of political correctness as but one of the faces of today's widespread sociocultural hypocrisy, and symptomatic of a drive towards shallowness, anti-intellectualism and self-flagellation, as part of a political culture in which perception is everything and the possibility of honest, rational debate is eroded.
