A captivating, indignant, witty story of the "Great Relabeling" of American language, Talking Right is a new look at political language from a master linguist, broadcaster and popular intellectual. Nunberg shows how the Right has waged a brilliant campaign to hijack the language of everyday political conversation to the point where political language has stopped making sense.
