Heresy Press’s first non-fiction offering addresses free speech and creative freedom—central to the press’s mission—in the form of a concise primer of arguments against censorship.

Co-authored by Greg Lukianoff and Nadine Strossen, The War on Words: 10 Arguments Against Free Speech—And Why They Fail constitutes a bulwark against attempts from both the political left and right to limit individual expression. At a time when pressures to conform threaten the exercise of viewpoint diversity and when attacks on free speech in word, print, performance, and image are a daily occurrence, we sorely need a book such as this!

This handy volume is organized around 10 flawed assertions that are often invoked to limit the freedom of speech, followed by well-reasoned rebuttals of those arguments by both authors. A comprehensive introduction, updates to highlight current issues, and an appendix with helpful resources round off this volume. The writing is lively, clear, and persuasive.

“Anyone who is opposed to shutting people up by force is bound to be faced with arguments that suppressing speech isn’t so bad after all. But these arguments were considered and rejected decades ago, and The War On Words is a perfect handy guide on how to answer them, by a hero and heroine of free expression.”
&&&8212; Steven Pinker, author of&&&160;When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows . . .&&&160;
&&&160;
“In a time of rising polarization, The War On Words is a vital reminder that free speech protects democracy itself. Lukianoff and Strossen make a compelling, principled, and timely case.” &&&8212; Ro Khanna, Member of Congress (D-CA)
&&&160;
“Nadine Strossen and Greg Lukianoff are two of the fiercest defenders of free speech and the First Amendment alive today. The War On Words is a must read for anybody who cares about freedom of speech.”
&&&8212; Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation
&&&160;
“Freedom of speech is sorely in need of special protection these days, and this book guides any reader to support it in clear, forthright, and powerful fashion.”
&&&8212; Floyd Abrams, author of&&&160;The Soul of the First Amendment
