"In The Madness of Crowds Douglas Murray investigates the dangers of 'woke' culture and the rise of identity politics. In lively, razor-sharp prose he examines the most controversial issues of our moment: sexuality, gender, technology and race, with interludes on the Marxist foundations of 'wokeness', the impact of tech and how, in an increasingly online culture, we must relearn the ability to forgive. One of the few writers who dares to counter the prevailing view and question the dramatic changes in our society--from gender reassignment for children to the impact of transgender rights on women--Murray's penetrating book, now published with a new afterword taking account of the book's reception and responding to the worldwide Black Lives Matter protests, clears a path of sanity through the fog of our modern predicament."--Back cover

'The most important book of the year' Daily Mail The brilliant and provocative new book from one of the world's foremost political writers

The very human stories from one of the most catastrophic events in the modern history of the United Kingdom.

In The War on the West, international bestselling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is a history of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it? It's become, he explains, perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What's more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech. Some of this is a much-needed reckoning; however, some of it is part of a larger international attack on reason, democracy, science, progress, and the citizens of the West by dishonest scholars, hatemongers, hostile nations and human rights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy. In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows how many well-meaning people have been lured into protests and polarisation by such lies and hypocrisy. A blistering and important polemic, Murray's latest book carefully and methodically shows how far political discourse has strayed in Europe and America from its stated goals: justice and equality. Propelled by an incisive deconstruction of inconsistent arguments and activism, towards a clarion call for the defence of enlightenment values, The War on the West is one of the most important books for a generation, cementing Murray as one of the world's foremost political writers.

This highly personal account explores a continent and culture in crisis, grappling with declining birth rates, mass immigration, and pervasive self-doubt. The narrative reveals how these factors have rendered Europeans unable to advocate for themselves or resist significant societal changes. It serves as both an analysis of demographic and political realities and an eyewitness account of a continent seemingly in self-destruct mode. The author provides insights from various locations across Europe, documenting the experiences of migrants and the responses of local populations. Through first-hand reporting and extensive research, the book critiques the failures of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's migration policy shift, the absence of repatriation, and the Western obsession with guilt. The author travels to cities like Berlin, Paris, and Lampedusa, uncovering the underlying malaise within European culture and sharing stories from those who have journeyed to Europe. Each chapter also examines broader issues contributing to this existential crisis, questioning why an entire civilization might engage in self-sabotage. The narrative concludes with two contrasting visions for Europe’s future—one hopeful and one pessimistic—highlighting the ongoing crisis and the choices that lie ahead.

A controversial and devastatingly honest depiction of the demise of Europe

Neo Conservatism: Why We Need It is a defense of the most controversial political philosophy of our era. Douglas Murray takes a fresh look at the movement that replaced Great-Society liberalism, helped Ronald Reagan bring down the Wall, and provided the intellectual rationale for the Bush administration's War on Terror. While others are blaming it for foreign policy failures and, more extremely, attacking it as a Jewish cabal, Murray argues that the West needs Neo-conservatism more than ever. In addition to explaining what Neo conservatism is and where it came from, he argues that this American-born response to the failed policies of the 1960s is the best approach to foreign affairs not only for the United States but also for Britain and the West as well.
