Rauch, J. (1993). Kindly inquisitors: The new attacks on free thought. University of Chicago Press. There is a slightly updated 2014 version which I read. It's on Libgen.

The best I had seen was just people repeating Churchill when I asked ("democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time"
