Crazy Like Us: The Globalization of the American Psyche by Ethan Watters

2.0

A very interesting theory/concept, however explored in a rather shallow way and anecdotal manner by the author. Although included at the end of the book, lack of in-text references makes doing further reading difficult. Watters writes in a very biased, binary way, and, up until the very last page, entirely ignores the promising advances made by and countless lives saved by modern psychiatry.
