Born Again Skeptic & Other Valedictions

Born Again Skeptic & Other Valedictionsaf Robert Murray Davis
Bag om Born Again Skeptic & Other Valedictions

In Born Again Skeptic & Other Valedictions, University of Oklahoma emeritus professor and peripatetic knowledge-seeker Robert Murray Davis tackles the big questions: about origins, identity, emotional and intellectual rootlessness; the little questions: why some small towns call to us and others don't, how academia works, or doesn't; and third-rail questions: about sex, relationships, women, men, religion, and aesthetics. The essays are witty and provocative, and Davis's writing style is both erudite and conversational.
