In a cultural setting where there is intensified questioning of the value of the liberal arts--from a first-year student who sees no utility in a required sociology class to a prominent elected official who disdains philosophy as an idle luxury--Redefining Liberal Arts Education in the Twenty-First Century is a welcome voice. It brings together a host of liberal arts scholars, from different fields and in different institutional settings, to ruminate on the twin themes of new opportunities for practicing the liberal arts and new articulations of their value. This is an important collection for an important conversation.--John Hayes, associate professor of history, Augusta University
