Shaw debates with G. K. Chesterson on the Democrat versus the Socialist, discusses Ruskin's politics, appraises Joan of Arc, examines sex appeal in the movies, defines woman as "man in petticoats," considers the ethical principles of social reconstruction, evaluates Fascism, gives advice to the students of Hong Kong University, and tells America to "Look, you boob!" at Soviet accomplishment. -- |c Book jacket. | ||
