Theodore Dalrymple I know only through his essays (not his books). For instance.
First and foremost he is a good and interesting writer. He also comes off as a honest and compassionate person. Second, he challenges liberal views, and it would be good for liberals to address what he has to say. Third, while he writes anecdotally, as a prison doctor and psychiatrist, his anecdotes are backed by many cases.
I think three good reasons are sufficient for me to provide as to why I follow his writings. In the idea that culture matters, I agree broadly with him.
