Book Description
Living in the Age of Apathy is a captivating and insightful book that takes an in depth look at how apathy could be the downfall of the United States and perhaps humanity. In this informative and engaging discussion of apathy, Army combat veteran, Gregory A. Chinama explores how apathy is the root cause in the destruction of the values and foundation of family as he experienced first-hand with his failed marriage. Chinama further explains that apathy is the ultimate reason to why the divorce rate in the U.S. continues to rise. Chinama also analyzes the youth in America and shows how many of our teenagers have adopted an "I don't care" attitude towards issues that are important in our society today. Politics is no exception; Chinama holds nothing back when identifying apathy among those whom Americans elect to be humble servants of the people. From comedians to the music we listen to, Living in the Age of Apathy will force you to question the country and the world in which we live. While a brilliant and eye-opening book, Chinama's Living in The Age of Apathy is crucial in a time of declining faith and rising doubt of a prosperous future.

Avoiding Politics
Author: Nina Eliasoph
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521587594
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Nina Eliasoph's vivid portrait of American civic life reveals an intriguing culture of political avoidance. Despite the importance for democracy of open-ended political conversation among ordinary citizens, many Americans try hard to avoid appearing to care about politics. To discover how, where and why Americans create this culture of avoidance, the author accompanied suburban volunteers, activists, and recreation club members for over two years, listening to them talk - and avoid talking - about the wider world, together and in encounters with government, media, and corporate authorities. She shows how citizens create and express ideas in everyday life, contrasting their privately expressed convictions with their lack of public political engagement. Her book challenges received ideas about culture, power and democracy, while exposing the hard work of producing apathy.

Pages : 418
Book Description
Pitched somewhere between Almost Famous and Withnail & I, Apathy for the Devil is a unique document of this most fascinating and troubling of decades - a story of inspiration, success and serious burn out. As a 20-something college dropout Nick Kent's first five interviews as a young writer were with the MC5, Captain Beefheart, The Grateful Dead, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed. Along with Charles Shaar Murray and Ian MacDonald he would go on to define and establish the NME as the home of serious music writing. And as apprentice to Lester Bangs, boyfriend of Chrissie Hynde, confidant of Iggy Pop, trusted scribe for Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones, and early member of the Sex Pistols, he was witness to both the beautiful and the damned of this turbulent decade.
