Reappraisals

As Tony Judt argues persuasively in REAPPRAISALS, we have entered an "age of forgetting." Today's world is so utterly unlike the world of just twenty years ago that we have set aside our immediate past even before we could make sense of it. We literally don't know where we came from. In REAPPRAISALS, Tony Judt resurrects key aspects of the world we have lost and reminds us how important they still are to us: now and to our hopes for the future. His book is a road map back to the historical sense we urgently need.
