Abstract

Had it not been written by an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, this book would not be reviewed: obviously calculated to pander to prurient political interest, it seems utterly without redeeming social value, although it does not violate current community standards, such as they are. However, the author's status makes the book news, just as a bishop's coming out for burlesque would be news: being a bishop is not, nor is favoring burlesque, but being a bishop favoring burlesque is. Points of Rebellion might be described as an apt, if unintended, caricature of the sentiments and ideas found in the student underground press-although, to be fair, mistakes of fact and grammar' seem more frequent in the caricature, and its intellectual sloppiness challenges credulity.
