About this product

Product Information

This book offers a diagnosis rather than an argument. It asks why Americans feel uneasy about these drugs, procedures and therapies even while they embrace them. It looks at where the line is drawn between self and society, and discusses why Americans seek self-realization in ways so heavily influenced by cultural conformity. Tracing the fault line in Americans' obsessive pursuit of happiness, this book is an exploration of the paradoxes of self-improvement.
