Reviews Book Description The rampant illnesses of our society--including the disintegration of family values, destruction of the environment, soulless consumerism, and bodies ravaged by stress--are familiar to us all. For the first time, author Stephen Bertman attempts to explain these disparate, overwhelmingly negative phenomena with a single, unifying principle: that the accelerated pace of technological and social change has polluted American society and eroded the essence of our most fundamental values. In 1970, Alvin Toffler identified the psycho-biological disease of "too much change in too short a time" and called it "future shock." Now Bertman daringly diagnoses an even more serious condition, "hyperculture," a pervasive and chronic warping of ethics and morals. The treatment for hyperculture, he argues in this book, will require nothing less than reasserting control over the technologies that now dominate us and taking bold steps to preserve the rapidly depleting bounty of nature.
