�Denial of the past damages everyone. The comprehensive scope of The
Politics of Denial � religious fundamentalism, authoritarian politics,
anti-environmentalism, and other immediate relevant matters � makes it
indispensable for anyone who wishes to understand American life and
thought.�   �Philip Greven, author of Spare the Child and The Protestant
Temperament

�Milburn and Conrad have written a very interesting book about the force
of denial in our lives  and in our politics. They range over their field
of study, from war to child rearing, offering new and often compelling
insights into the role of denial in the way we see and understand
ourselves.� �Marvin Kalb, Director, Shorenstein Center, Kennedy School of
Government, Harvard
