American Anxiety and What You Can Do About It - by Donald A Neeper (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Why are political statements loaded with lies? Why is suicide a major cause of death among teens? Why is the wealth in the top 1% of households more than 600 times that in the bottom 50%? This book explains how large group behaviors are based in our rules of interaction. Without conscious decision, we try to look good, be right by making others wrong, and win. In America, winning is important, even if that damages governance, economy, and shared needs like climate. This story explains what's different now from 40 years ago, while outlining opportunities to alter our descent toward turbulence or repression.
