Heresies
John Gray
By the author of the best-selling Straw Dogs, this book is a characteristically trenchant and unflinchingly clear-sighted collection of reflections on our contemporary lot. Whether writing about the future of our species on this planet, the folly of our faith in technological progress, or the self-deceptions of the liberal establishment, John Gray dares to be heretical like few other thinkers today.

We have a truly original, alarming and penetrating essayist in our midst... this book will still be a book of the year in 2104
Bryan Appleyard, Sunday Times
A collection of brilliant, bleak and thoroughly exasperating essays in which he recants his faith in science, politics and progress
Independent on Sunday
A welcome and timely collection of his brilliant essays ... Gray expertly demolishes our misguided faith in progress and modernity, global government and the end of history. A powerful antidote to liberal complacency
