N2  - It seems like we can't talk about anything nowadays... 
       Whether it's war or something utterly inconsequential, the
       internet is primed for furore. And the results can be 
       horrifying - from online pile-ons and doxing to job loss 
       and, in some cases, death. But how did we end up here? 
       Nuanced and historically grounded, A. C. Grayling searches
       for middle ground in an otherwise incendiary debate. 
       Looking at the history of cancellation, from Ancient Greek
       'ostracism' through hemlock cups, witch trials and the 
       House of Un-American Activities, Discriminations is a 
       timely examination of the state of our public culture and 
       the chilling effect it's having on intellectual discourse
