In The Madness of Crowds Douglas Murray investigates the dangers of woke culture and the rise of identity politics. In lively, razor-sharp prose he examines the most controversial issues of our moment: sexuality, gender, technology and race, with interludes on the Marxist foundations of wokeness, the impact of tech and how, in an increasingly online culture, we must relearn the ability to forgive. One of the few writers who dares to counter the prevailing view and question the dramatic changes in our society - from gender reassignment for children to the impact of transgender rights on women - Murrays penetrating book, now published with a new afterword taking account of the books reception and responding to the worldwide Black Lives Matter protests, clears a path of sanity through the fog of our modern predicament.

Review "Douglas Murray fights the good fight for freedom of speech ... A truthful look at todays most divisive issues" --Jordan B. Peterson, bestselling author of 12 Rules for Life "[Murrays] latest book is beyond brilliant and should be read, must be read, by everyone. He mercilessly exposes the hypocrisy and embarrassingly blatant contradictions that run rife through the current woke vogue." --Richard Dawkins "Whether one agrees with him or not, Douglas Murray is one of the most important public intellectuals today." --Bernard-Henri Lévy "How can you not know about The Madness of Crowds? Its actually the book Ive just finished. You cant just not read these books, not know about them." --Tom Stoppard "Simply brilliant. Reading it to the end, I felt as though Id just drawn my first full breath in years. At a moment of collective madness, there is nothing more refreshing - or, indeed, provocative - than sanity." --Sam Harris, author of five New York Times bestsellers and host of the Making Sense podcast. "An abomination" --Titania McGrath, author of Woke: A Guide to Social Justice "This is an author who specialises in expressing what everyone sort of knows already and is afraid to say ... well argued, well supported and well observed" --The Times, Lionel Shriver "Graceful and witty" --Guardian "Necessary and provocative" --Evening Standard "Impressive and lively ... Murrays comprehensive survey of the prevailing madness will not persuade every reader. But it raises the real questions of our times." --Roger Scruton, Unherd "Murrays book performs a great service" --Financial Times "Fascinating ... Much of what Murray writes is pertinent and hard to disagree with" --Sunday Times "Murray is a superbly perceptive guide through the age of the social justice warrior" --Daily Telegraph "Murrays book raises urgent questions about how people should conduct themselves in todays age of "wokeness"" --Catholic Herald "Murrays was the third critical interrogation of this subject that I read this summer, and it is the best." --The Times Saturday Review "A profoundly helpful insight on the hysteria of cancel culture." --Saba Douglas-Hamilton, Scottish Field Review Quote "Simply brilliant. Reading it to the end, I felt as though Id just drawn my first full breath in years. At a moment of collective madness, there is nothing more refreshing - or, indeed, provocative - than sanity." -- Sam Harris, author of five New York Times bestsellers and host of the Making Sense podcast.
