Critical Essays on Major Contemporary Issues that Greatly Affect Ourselves and Our World

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

We now exist in a world that is both vastly evolved and microscopically focused. Innovation tends to outpace reflection while consumption often outgrows need. With intellectual rigor and accessible insight, cultural critic and lifelong learner Stephen Hoenigmann examines the social, environmental, and psychological fallout of industrialization and modern economics, blending historical context, philosophical critique, sociological analysis, and scientific references alongside personal observation.

In Modern Living and Its Discontents, Mr. Hoenigmann delivers a sweeping collection of essays that question the hidden costs of progress. From healthcare to fast fashion, social media to globalization, this comprehensive compendium explores how our tech-driven, convenience-obsessed society has gone off course-and what it might take to reclaim a more balanced, sustainable way of living. Rather than offering a doomsday diagnosis, the book calls readers to reimagine how we live, think, and interact with one another and the planet. Mr. Hoenigmann proposes human-centered alternatives grounded in ethical intention, local resourcefulness, and cooperative action.

Written for curious, thoughtful readers across the political and cultural spectrum, Modern Living and Its Discontents is a rare and urgent invitation to reflect, question, and reorient.
