Great title for a book, but as sometimes happens, doesn't quite live up to the potential. The main focus of the book is what I would consider pop culture - rock music, football, TV - and an attempt to analyze what might be lasting or of quality in these forms. Unfortunately I am not really interested in these questions.
We live in a period of unprecedented issue and problems that threaten to destroy societies and life on earth. This train of thought would have been much more interesting if applied to some of the current big issues we face, and how our attempts to find solutions are limited by our ability to think differently, to break out of past models and understandings.
