Be Very Afraid: The Cultural Response to Terror, Pandemics, Environmental Devastation, Nuclear Annihilation, and Other Threats
by Wuthnow, Robert
|
| |
| Freud declared that the standard psychological response to an overwhelming danger is denial. In fact, Robert Wuthnow writes, the opposite is true: we seek ways of meeting the threat, even if they're wasteful and counterproductive. Offering insight into our responses to everything from nuclear weapons to the swine flu epidemic, he provides profound insights into our reactions to existential vulnerability. | | |
