Abstract

John Ralston Saul's recent book, Reflections of a Siamese Twin: Canada at the End of the Twentieth Century, follows three very successful earlier works, Voltaire's Bastards: The Dictatorship of Reason In the West, Toronto: Viking, 1992; The Doubter's Companion: A Dictionary of Aggressive Common Sense, Toronto: Viking, 1994; and The Unconscious Civilization, Concord, Ontario: Anansi, 1995 (The Massey Lectures for 1995). As well as an award-winning novelist, he's also a passionate and articulate thinker.
