""I strongly urge everyone to read this volume of essays. . ." The Educational Forum "Convictions may indeed be interpreted as Sidney Hook's final outlook on the possibilities of a self-determined, dignified, and rational human life, or liberal education, and of a free and intelligently organized society. . . .[it] will be appreciated by anybody with an interest in contemporary social and political philosophy." Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy newsletter "Highly recommended." Library Journal ". . . the collection stands as an accessible and highly readable record of the personal convictions of one of America's most notable social philosophers." American Journal of Theology and Philosophy "His latest collection shows him to have been to the very end a nonpareil marshaler of arguments, as well as an exemplary figure in American intellectual life." Washington Post
