A Tolerable Anarchy: Professor Jed Purdy

March 19, 2009 • 7:00 PM • Law School Star Commons

Duke Law Professor Jedediah Purdy will discuss and sign copies of his new book, "A Tolerable Anarchy: Rebels, Reactionaries, and the Making of American Freedom," which explores the meaning of American freedom and suggests that "freedom is not just where you end up, but how you get there." Purdy is the author of two acclaimed books (For Common Things and Being America), a fellow at the New America Foundation, an affiliated scholar at the Center for American Progress, and a contributing editor at The American Prospect. This event is sponsored by the Regulator Bookshop; a light reception will follow.
