Jace Dauksch’s Reviews > The Right Side of History: How Reason and Moral Purpose Made the West Great > Status Update

Shapiro argues that Western success comes from the blend of Judeo-Christian morals and Greek reason, warning that losing these roots leads to cultural decline. The history is engaging but leans on examples that support his view while smoothing over complexities. His call for purpose is inspiring but short on practical steps. This book will appeal to a niche audience that agrees with Shapiro’s fundamental values.
