Description
A study of the erosion of American culture explores the general disillusionment and discontent that pervade Americans' lives, arguing that the social, spiritual, and philosophical turmoil that followed the 1960s collided headlong with the media and technology revolution at the end of the twentieth century to create an explosive cultural and ethical overload. 50,000 first printing.
