Resumen del Editor

When parents send their children off to college, Mom and Dad hope they'll return more cultivated, knowledgeable, and astute - able to see issues from all points of view. But, according to Ben Shapiro, there's only one view allowed on most college campuses: a rabid brand of liberalism that must be swallowed hook, line, and sinker.

In this explosive exposé, Ben Shapiro, a UCLA graduate, reveals how America's university system is one of the largest brainwashing machines on the planet. Examining this nationwide problem from firsthand experience, Shapiro shows how the leftists who dominate the universities - from the administration to the student government, from the professors to the student media - use their power to mold impressionable minds.

Fresh and bitterly funny, this book proves that the universities, far from being a place for open discussion, are really dungeons of the mind that indoctrinate students to become socialists, atheists, race baiters, and narcissists.

Ben Shapiro: Thug Life

The man is never wrong and this book is a clear indication as to why he thought of in such a great way. Enjoy!

How schools and Universities is changing our think

Schools are telling the children's, what to do and how to act and gives to destroy our future going forward

Sad but true

This hit home really hard in a time when “experts” are being taken at their word, simply because they are professors…not because they are professionals. They are attempting to dictate this virus response, our belief in God and how we fight our wars. Yet, few have any experience in the outside world….only what they’ve read in their slanted literature.

Well written and very powerful!

Great book

Ben has always been able to look at subjects in an unbiased and honest manner and this book highlights his personal experience and research about our current state. Great book ben and David. Great narration by Chris.

Shocking

Listening to this audiobook was a good decision. I am taking graduate courses in counseling and this audiobook has armed with with the logical tools to debate my viewpoints. The radical views of many the many college professors contribute to startling numbers and have me on my guard for indoctrination in my own education.

well thought out point of view

a fact-based narrative that definitely shows some of the biases that pre-exist in higher education

Sad Commentary on Higher Education

I was shocked by some of the examples of such imbalance that exists and intolerance of ideas that do not comport with the liberal viewpoint.

very informative

There is a reason why Ben Shapiro is known for his arguments in debate. This book is full of references and data that truly show the bias inflicted upon students by the university system. In fact I would treat this more as a reference book for that reason in the event I would need to present evidence for this subject. Being a college student, I can confirm that the issues discussed in this book have come to become even worse in terms of the indoctrination and the censorship. I would highly recommend people in college read this before they take anything said from their professors at face value.

great !!

Been Shapiro great as always very good book loved it thanks for the information!! thanks

Great coverage of a serious cultural problem

Shapiro provides comprehensive and journalistic coverage of the leftist bias in American universities across a variety of issues and through numerous examples. I would like to have seen more of the reasons leading to the situation discussed, but the scope of the book was appropriate as it stands.

My only complaint is his conflation of negative attitudes towards religion in scientific disciplines with the prevailing anti-conservative bias. He does not account for the fact that the scientific method depends on the willingness of researchers to discard failed hypotheses in favor of those better substantiated.

Creationism, for example, brings an assumed conclusion to the table; and, as a matter of faith, is not subject to rejection. For this reason, it and similar convictions do not belong in science regardless of political persuasion. This means that even if universities were as conservative as they are leftist now, science departments would still be just as likely to instruct students not to treat purportedly inerrant religious claims as valid hypotheses, purely to uphold the integrity of the method.

It is this humility in the pursuit of knowledge that both the religious and the left (which is fundamentally a religion after all) would do well to remember when speaking on matters of fact.
