This book argues that neither deliberative democracy nor paternalism is a plausible solution to what is call the problem of political rhetoric. Further, the problem, while contingent, is likely to be intractable; thus, the response should not be to attempt more political solutions, but to adopt individual principles of epistemic caution.
