About the book

Political language expert Jeffrey Feldman analyses the words of leading conservative figures Ann Coulter, Dinesh D'Souza, James Dobson, Wayne LaPierre, Pat Buchanan and Bill O'Reilly to show how the Right's language of violence is polluting the public discourse and limiting the free exchange of ideas. In addition to exposing the conservative obsession with violence, Feldman also shows how the civic discussion in America can be reshaped without the use of violent language, creating a healthier political climate.
