Nobility of Spirit: A Forgotten Ideal

Anyone read this?
http://www.amazon.com/Nobility-Spiri...ref=kinw_dp_ke

I ran across a review on the Elegant Variation and it looks very interesting.

This slim volume by the president and founder of the Nexus Institute, a European-based humanist think-tank, stands as the most stirring redoubt against the ascendant forces of know-nothingness that we've come across in a long time. A full-throated, unapologetic defense of the virtues of Western Civ – in which "elite" is not and never should be a dirty word – this inspiring exploration of high art and high ideals
