This thought-provoking book is ideal for readers interested in philosophy, psychology, social critique, and political theory. It will particularly appeal to those questioning modern societal norms and the impact of capitalism on human well-being.
This critique of contemporary capitalism established Fromm as one of the most controversial political thinkers of his generation, and was originally published to wide acclaim and even wider disapproval.

Description
Following the publication of the seminal Fear of Freedom, Erich Fromm applied his unique vision to a critique of contemporary capitalism in The Sane Society. Where the former dealt with man's historic inability to come to terms with his sense of isolation, and the dangers to which this can lead, The Sane Society took his theories one step further. In doing so, it established Fromm as one of the most controversial political thinkers of his generation.
Analysing how individuals conform to contemporary capitalist and patriarchal societies, the book was published to wide acclaim and even wider disapproval. It was a scathing indictment of modern capitalism and, as such, proved unwelcome to many. Unwelcome because much of what Fromm had to say was true.
Today, as we settle into the challenges of the 21st century, Fromm's writings are just as relevant as when they were first written. Read it and decide for yourself - are you living in a sane society?
