Posner began writing a blog together, the Becker-Posner Blog has established a reputation as a reliable source of lively, thought-provoking commentary on current events. Uncommon Sense gathers the most important and innovative entries from the blog, arranged by topic, along with updates and even reconsiderations when subsequent events have shed new light on a question."--Jacket.
