A Delicate Balance of Reason is an observational critique of the contemporary 'culture wars' through the eyes of someone who has experienced the full weight of their effects firsthand.

Die Welt, in der wir leben, ist kompliziert und vielen Menschen fremd geworden. Immer mehr Gruppen, von denen wir früher wenig bis nichts hörten, drängen in die Öffentlichkeit, um für ihre Anliegen zu werben oder gar der Gesellschaft vorzuschreiben, was sie zu tun hat. Wie kann der Erfolg dieser sogenannten Identitätspolitik erklärt werden? Und wie sollte die Kirche darauf reagieren? Der Historiker Carl R.
