'I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it' This slogan, attributed to Voltaire, is frequently quoted by defenders of free speech. Yet it is rare to find anyone prepared to defend all expression in every circumstance, especially if the views expressed incite violence. So where do the limits lie? What is the real value of free speech? Here, Nigel Warburton offers a concise guide to important questions facing modern society about the value and limits of free speech: Where should a civilized society draw the line? Should we be free to offend other people's religion? Are there good grounds for censoring pornography? Has the Internet changed everything? This Very Short Introduction is a thought-provoking, accessible, and up-to-date examination of the liberal assumption that free speech is worth preserving at any cost.

文理非常清楚。从bookworm上down下来的，缺了十页左右，挺可惜的。

评分外行看热闹
评分2015/9/18 五星。回想起来这本书里的内容真是非常有用。 2015/5/18 四星，Hate speech, religious blasphemy, pornography, internet, copyright, 以及free speech和democracy的关系都讲到了。但是从pornography开始作者水平明显下降。书很大程度上基于 Mill 的理论。
