Outcasts and Heretics is a series of profiles focusing on leaders of independent thought and courage. Spanning from middle age religious heretics to modern whistle blowers, this volume maps common threads between independent thought and proven courage.
Outcasts and Heretics is a historical survey of independent thought in action. Divided into two sections, "Modern Outcasts" and "The Legacy of Religious Heresy and Dissent", professor emeritus Donald K. Sharpes traces common themes between courageous historical individuals. Often looking at individuals in the context of religion, Sharpes paints profiles of individuals who stood up against oppressing forces and overwhelming odds. Offering numerous profiles of varying lengths, the selection ranges from such well-known 20th century figures as Gandhi to esoteric historical figures, such as John Leo. Outcasts and Heretics is an inspiring book for all readers.
