AUTHOR
SUMMARY
The American dream champions individualism. But at what price? In this timely revision of The Wilding of America, Charles Derber chronicles the latest incidents of "wilding"-extreme acts of self-interested violence and greed-that signal an eroding of the moral landscape of American society. Despite the ever-increasing emphasis on individualism in America, Derber offers a communitarian alternative that is as inspiring as it is instructive. Recent wilding events, such as the social aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the war in Iraq, and recent government scandals, are highlighted in this new edition. Book jacket.Charles Derber is the author of 'The Wilding of America: Money, Mayhem, and the New American Dream (Contemporary Social Issues)', published 2006 under ISBN 9780716782575 and ISBN 071678257X.
