Title: The Big Sort: Why the Clustering of Like-Minded America is Tearing Us Apart
Author: Bill Bishop
Published: May 2009
Book Summary:
Americans today are increasingly free to surround ourselves with the neighbors, institutions, and even news that fit our worldviews. We have grasped this opportunity with accelerating enthusiasm, and as a result the last three decades have a seen a dramatic segregation of American communities along political, economic, and religious lines. While this freedom is understandably appealing, Bill Bishop lays out with stark clarity the dangerous consequences and chilling implications of this “ideological inbreeding.”
