No I was not. But when you may have the time to summarize some points you will focus on more it can be intresting for me or other readers as well.
Discussion
In retrospect I think the big points are:
-internalizing the human experience as strictly a consumer leaves most young people feeling like a significant part of their life is missing
-individualized mental illness masks the fact that our current social and economic system is a significant cause of mental illness
-the worst parts of salinity bureaucracy (working in a way that produces the metrics that make your boss happy at the expense of whatever good/service you're supposed to be providing) have been totally incorporated into modern capitalist neoliberalism.
I think I agree with all of these points even though I would normally disagree with a semi-marxist anticapitalist worldview like the one the author holds
I take the liberty focusing on the second point. It seems the most intresting for my mind. First and for all, thanks a lot sharing your review of the book.
But I think it is a great point that many problems that are may systemic problems are not recognized since on is only seeing the symptoms in individuals instead of understanding, that the causes are not individual.
But also I think we are in the time of free information. So scientist, psychologist and whtever great people solving daily problems can connect easyer to eachother than inytime in the past.
So with this great circunstances we are may living in the best times that the cause of these problems is found and when they are understood well, we can solve them down to the roots.
If you're interested in the second point I really recommend reading the book! It's very short, I finished it in a couple days
