Exploring the entire range of \"contrary positions\"--from noble dissident to gratuitous nag--Hitchens introduces the next generation to the minds and the misfits who influenced him, invoking such mentors as Emile Zola, Rosa Parks, and George Orwell. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As is his trademark, Hitchens pointedly pitches himself in contrast to stagnant attitudes across the ideological spectrum.
