-Caveat Lector- Via www.informinc.co.uk/index.html 'James Nolan rigorously traces the ways in which the American state has both responded to and promoted a therapeutic ethos in order to legitimise its role at the century's end. In civil law, criminal law, education, welfare policy and politics he discovers the growing ascendancy of emotion, subjectivity, victimhood and self-esteem; how 'happy and healthy' is replacing 'good or bad or even right or wrong'. This brilliant analysis conjures up the vision of a future in which active citizens have become passive patients. Before you feel the pain or get in touch with your feelings, you should read this book.'
