Meer over het boek

Exploring the concept of "Unspeak," the author examines how politically charged phrases like "pro-life" and "intelligent design" subtly convey opinions while silencing dissent. By analyzing these terms, Poole highlights their role in shaping public discourse, akin to Orwell's "1984." He argues that such language not only promotes a singular viewpoint but also complicates the expression of opposing ideas, ultimately influencing societal thought. This insightful work delves into the evolution of language and its impact on perception and debate.
