Shapiro argues that the relentless pursuit of Free Download and control through an ever-expanding web of rules can stifle innovation, creativity, and human flourishing. The quest for perfection can ultimately undermine the very values that rules are intended to protect.

Instead of striving for an unattainable utopia, Shapiro proposes a more pragmatic and nuanced approach to rule-making, one that embraces flexibility, adaptability, and responsiveness to changing circumstances.

: Rules for a Flourishing Society
