NATIONAL BESTSELLERThe prescient and nowclassic analysis of the forces of antiintellectualism in contemporary American lifeupdated for the era of Trump, Twitter, Breitbart and fake news controversies.The searing cultural history of the last halfcentury, The Age of American Unreason In A Culture of Lies focuses on the convergence of social forcesusually treated as separate entitiesthat has created a perfect storm of antirationalism. These include the upsurge of religious fundamentalism, with more political power today than ever before; the failure of public education to create an informed citizenry; the triumph of internet over print culture; and America's toxic addition to infotainment. Combining historical analysis with contemporary observation and sparing neither the right nor the left, Susan Jacoby asserts that Americans today have embraced 'junk thought' that makes almost no effort to separate fact from opinion.At today's critical political juncture, nothing could be more important than recognizing the crisis described in this impassioned, toughminded book, which challenges Americans to face the painful truth about what the flights from reason has cost us as individuals and as a nation.
