The book analyzes what has gone wrong with the United States since its inception, and the problems we now face as a result. It discuss the elements of a healthy human identity--elements that are largely absent from the American scene. And it poses alternatives to all of this, models already present in the consciousness of a few, and which, post-collapse, may possibly be realized several decades down the line. In the course of this discussion, the author reviews the pathology of smart phones and related electronic gadgets; the phenomenon of Hillary Clinton as an archetypal American disaster, and of Joe Bageant as an unsung hero; and the visionary work of scholars such as Pitirim Sorokin and Lewis Mumford. All in all, \u003cem\u003eAre We There Yet?\u003c\/em\u003e will have you thinking about what the possibilities are for achieving some semblance of sanity in a world completely out of kilter.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaders interested in related titles from Morris Berman will also want to see: Coming to Our Senses (ISBN: 1626542910), Spinning Straw Into Gold (ISBN: 1635610532).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Morris Berman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1635610567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781635610567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Echo Point Books \u0026amp; Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.49d","brand":"Morris Berman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979479384319,"sku":"9781635610567","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_24e07131-4eb1-40b0-b0e9-b3ef1f1be036.jpg?v=1683245726","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/are-we-there-yet-morris-berman-9781635610567","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
