Allan C. Carlson is president emeritus of the Howard Center for Family, Religion, and Society in Rockford, Illinois and was distinguished visiting professor of history and politics at Hillsdale College.
"An absolute "must-read" not for what it says, but rather how it speaks--in a style of reasoned, serious-minded public debate with the greater good in mind, listening openly to opponents and addressing their counterpoints logically without resorting to any kind of personal attacks, morality judgments, or blanket pandering.... Highly recommended."
--"Midwest Book Review"
"One of Carlson's key achievements is to demonstrate that public policy must rise above the short-sightedness of the social science industry, which has historically reduced marriage and family issues to welfare programs serving low-income populations."
-- Robert W. Patterson, Touchstone Magazine
"is an important contribution towards the battle to protect marriage."
-- Allan Carlson, "Culture Watch"
"Carlson is a leading conservative proponent of marriage. These lectures bring together in an accessible form his basic argument: the public purpose of marriage is raising children.Carlson breaks no new ground in this book, but he does provide a clear, concise, teachable conversation starter on the procreative view of marriage."
