Prospect Public Intellectual 2008 Top Trumps

David Killen  —  23rd December 2008

In our Christmas edition, Prospect announced the results of our Public Intellectual of 2008 contest – won by General David Petraeus. Just for fun, we decided to mark the event with a special Christmas treat – some original Prospect public intellectual top trump cards. Enjoy, and have a happy Christmas from all at Prospect!

Thanks also to the New Humanist magazine – whose excellent religion trumps first gave us the inspiration for this idea.
