Synopsis

What is "The Middle Mind"? According to Curtis White, it's the dominant force shaping American culture - and as we know, American culture is increasingly our culture too. Seeping into politics, literature, art and technology, the Middle Mind is easily digestible precisely because it requires no thought. Providing insights into the absurdity of the US lifestyle, this book is for anyone who's ever been riled by current political debate, dismayed by critical theory, or bemused by the prominence of Celine Dion in the charts. Witty, irreverent and far-reaching, The Middle Mind ends with a call to recover our imagination.
