  • Belle’s Bookshelf reviews WWWH?


    A nice review from Aussie blogger Belle. From the review:

    Even for someone who isn’t a massive non-fiction reader, I found this book to be extremely interesting, engaging and yes, even enjoyable. I came away feeling more informed, more fired up and frankly, more touched than I thought I would be. Because what this book highlights most of all is that, at its very root, this argument is one of love and compassion – and it cannot be won without those things.

  • Andrew Sullivan outs me

    …as a conservative, writing:

    This conservative case was buttressed by my fellow conservative writers – learned, decent, honest intellectuals like Jon Rauch and Bruce Bawer and Dale Carpenter and John Corvino and many others. We were no Democrats.

    For the record, I’ve been a registered Democrat for decades. Nonetheless, the full piece is well worth reading.

  • Review of Debating SSM at The American Conservative


    There’s a nice profile of John’s marriage-debate book (with Maggie Gallagher) at The American Conservative. From the review:

    Debating Same-Sex Marriage is an important book that lays bare the philosophical arguments for and against the legalization of same-sex marriage. Although I am partial to Gallagher’s arguments, Corvino’s position is well argued and more in tune with the times.

  • Publishers Weekly reviews John’s New Book


    There’s a nice review at Publishers Weekly of my new book, available on Kindle now or in hardcopy in March. From the review:

    Corvino’s “hope [is that] this book invites an ongoing dialogue that is thoughtful, rigorous, sensitive, and productive”; he’s successful on all counts, and the result is an essential and accessible read for any interested parties.
