The Politically Incorrect Guide is a book series by Regnery Publishing presenting conservative, or politically incorrect views on various topics. Each book is written by a different author and generally presents a conservative or libertarian{{cn|date=April 2017}} viewpoint on the subject at hand. The series was the brainchild of Jeffrey Rubin, {{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} then editor of the Conservative Book Club, Regnery's sister company within Washington, DC-based Eagle Publishing.

Content

Each Politically Incorrect Guide contains the following:

  • "Guess What" sections, which oppose common liberal viewpoints.
  • "PC Myth" which discusses widely believed ideas that the authors see as completely false and what they believe to be the truth.
  • Boxed texts
    • "A Book You're Not Supposed to Read", depicted with a pig at the top of each box, lists books that challenge politically correct opinions about topics covered in the Guide.
    • "Pig", which lists quotes from notable authors supporting the opinions given. A picture of a microphone is featured at the top of each box.

Some books have variations on this theme, such as:

  • "Muhammad versus Jesus" quotes in The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam, which tells that Muhammad preached violence and Jesus nonviolence.
  • "What They Don't Want You to Learn From..." in The Politically Incorrect Guide to English and American Literature.
  • "A Book Atheists Want to Burn" instead of "A Book You're Not Supposed to Read" in The Politically Incorrect Guide to The Bible.
  • "Books the Viet Cong Wouldn't Want You to Read" in The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Vietnam War.
  • "Books a Yankee Wouldn't Want You to Read" in The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Civil War.

Reader-selected expansion

One feature of The Politically Incorrect Guide series is the ability for readers to vote (through Regnery's associate Human Events) on topics they would like to see covered in future books. The top three selected topics in a 2006 readers' poll[1] were: the United States Constitution, the Bible, and capitalism. Books in the series for all three topics have since been published.

Criticisms

The Panda's Thumb, a blog which supports mainstream science and the consensus on evolution, reviewed The Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design providing analysis on nine of the 17 chapters and called it "not only politically incorrect but incorrect in most other ways as well: scientifically, logically, historically, legally, academically, and morally."[2] Chris Mooney has criticized The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science, calling it "the Incorrect Guide to Science".[3] Some historians also took issue with The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Civil War criticizing its "cherry-picked research and one-sided judgments of figures".[4] The One People's Project described author H. W. Crocker as a neo-Confederate.[5] Politically Incorrect Guide authors Kevin Gutzman and Clint Johnson have appeared on The Political Cesspool, a white nationalist radio show.[6]
