I do agree with the comment a lot of people made that the initial theory that we don't live in a disciplinary society anymore and that we don't distinguish an "other" but rather only a "different" is not well argumented and possivly false. However, i find a lot of his theories to still stand to be true. Most specifically the "main" point that we arrived to a system of self exploitation which is the most efficient form of capitalism and also it is set to produce burnout. I found the chapter on boredom/hyperactivity to be really enlightening as well. I feel like most people know that multitasking is bad, subconsciously, but we are told so many times that it is a positive thing that we continue to foster it even if it adds no value to one's life. The author introduced me to a lot of other books i want to read as well, like Ehrenberg "Weariness".

Repetitive, not as insightful, as disappointing.

لكل عصر آلامه المميزة. وهكذا وُجد عصر بكتيري. على أبعد تقدير ، انتهى باكتشاف المضادات الحيوية. على الرغم من الخوف الآن من انتشار وباء ما ، فإننا لا نعيش في عصر فيروسي. بفضل التكنولوجيا المناعية ، تركناه بالفعل وراءنا. من وجهة نظر مرضية ، لم يتم تمييز القرن الحادي والعشرين بواسطة البكتيريا ولا بالفيروسات ، ولكن بواسطة الخلايا العصبية. الأمراض العصبية مثل الاكتئاب ، واضطراب فرط الحركة ونقص الانتباه (ADHD) ، واضطراب الشخصية الحدية (BPD) ، ومتلازمة الإرهاق ، كلها تمثل مشهد علم الأمراض في بداية القرن الحادي والعشرين. هم ليسوا التهابات ، ولكن احتشاءات. فهذه الأمراض لا تنبع من سلبية ما هو غريب مناعيًا ، بل تنبع من الإفراط في الإيجابية!!

Um livro com poucas páginas mas cheio de reflexões profundas sobre a nossa sociedade, que o autor considera em desequilíbrio, provocado por um excesso de positividade. O cansaço pode ser esgotante e incapacitante, mas também pode ser gerador da utilidade do inútil.
