How do intellectuals set about reaching their conclusions? How carefully do they examine the evidence? How great is their respect for truth? And how do they apply their public principles to their private lives? In an intriguing series of case studies and incisive portraits, Rousseau, Shelley, Marx, Ibsen, Tolstoy, Hemingway, Bertrand Russell, Brecht, Sartre, Norman Mailer, James Baldwin, Noam Chomsky, and others are revealed as intellectuals both brilliant and contradictory, magnetic and dangerous.

That aside--Paul Johnsons work and insights are, as usual, sublime. It's a worthy listen if you, like me, don't have the time or inclination to read the book.
Brilliant book- grating narrator.

The only issue I have with the audio version is that the narrator finds it necessary to affect native dialects when quoting these intellectuals, almost as if he's purposely trying to ridicule Johnson himself by turning in a secondsecond-rate performance. Otherwise, it's really a good audiobook!!
This is a great, insightful read!!

Any additional comments?
After reading or listening to all the popular classics and hundreds of other books, I've found it difficult to find a monthly subscription book worth listening to. I lucked out on this one; choosing it only because it was non-fiction and performed by my favorite reader. Intellectuals is an eye opener I'd recommend to everyone. The insight provided on these conventional idols is priceless and the delivery is perfection.Astonishing Treasure of a Book
