At this moment in history, when people have access to technology, education, and communication their ancestors couldn't even dream of, so many people come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What's going on? If anyone can put a name to the current malaise and help fix it, it's Mark Manson. He turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat people alive. He openly defies the definitions of faith, happiness, freedom, and even of hope itself.
