ReceptionJesse Norman wrote in The Spectator: "There are occasional missteps and the odd mini-rant, but the book is highly engaging, and studded with insights into topics as diverse as international treaties, alienation and the nature of laughter."[1] In Standpoint, David Willetts wrote that the book "communicates a distinctive conservative disposition with great charm and formidable learning."[2] Willetts wrote that Scruton: is very good on the importance of autonomous institutions — what I called civic conservatism. But he is surprisingly uninterested in where this great tradition comes from or how it has changed over time. He appears to regard it as a happy and perhaps rather accidental gift from history. This means that his account of the role of Conservatives is rather passive and incurious.[2] References1. ^{{Cite web|last=Norman|first=Jesse|author-link=Jesse Norman|date=27 September 2014|url=http://www.spectator.co.uk/2014/09/how-to-be-a-conservative-by-roger-scruton-book-review/|title=Passion, authority and the odd mini-rant: Scruton’s conservative vision|work=The Spectator|accessdate=27 May 2016}} 2. ^1 {{Cite web|last=Willetts|first=David|author-link=David Willetts|date=November 2014|url=http://standpointmag.co.uk/books-squire-roger-scruton-and-tory-disposition-david-willetts|title=Squire Scruton and the Tory Disposition|work=Standpoint|accessdate=27 May 2016}} External links
