BOOK DESCRIPTIONIn 1945, with the merciful conclusion of WWII, the world of the past was brutally severed from the world of the future. Since then, pundits, philosophers, novelists and journalists have been unable to let go of that mesmerizing date, wherein everything in human existence took a hit and suddenly changed. Three quarters of a century later, the family, the school, the church, the government, technology, philosophy and religion have all changed-or so we imagine. Pointedly, Dr. Fisher asks, But have they, really?Fisher sees the rise of Corporate America as evidence that the nation has never moved beyond the enthralling euphoria of 1945. He accuses the United States of being fixated, unjustifiably, on its role of global conscience and world policeman, to the point that it resembles a self-deluded mentally ill person, detached from reality, fabulating about its assumed omniscience.From a lifelong personal perspective, he sees an irrefutable connection between the workers of today, and the workplace of 1945. He laments the counter-dependency of today's workers on the workplace for their total well-being, resulting in an inability to contribute meaningfully to American society, whatever their education or privilege.The series of books profiled here isolates this malady, unmasking the arrogance of under-achieving American workers, who swagger about as if they are in control, while those actually exercising control continue to eat their oysters.
