Loury is one of the most prominent public intellectuals of our time. He is often radically opposed to the political mainstream and delights in upending what's expected of a Black public figure. More so than the arguments themselves—on affirmative action, institutional racism, Trumpism—his public life has been characterised by fearlessness and a willingness to recalibrate strongly held and forcefully argued beliefs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLoury grew up on the south side of Chicago, earned a PhD in MIT's economics program, and became the first Black tenured professor of economics at Harvard at the age of thirty-three. He has been, at turns, a young father, a drug addict, an adulterer, a psychiatric patient, a born-again Christian, a lapsed born-again Christian, and a Black Reaganite who has swung from the right to the left and back again. In \u003cem\u003eLate Admissions\u003c\/em\u003e, Loury examines what it means to chart a sense of self over the course of a tempestuous, but well-considered, life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855798751468,"sku":"9780393881349","price":61.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/5894373482328.jpg?v=1759278128","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/late-admissions-by-glenn-loury-9780393881349","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
