Summary:
"Twilight of American Sanity "joins a small shelf of essential titles - Arlie Hochschild's Strangers in Their Own Land is another - that help explain why and how the Trump presidency happened" (Kirkus Reviews). More than three years in the making: the world's leading expert on psychiatric diagnosis and the author of Saving Normal delivers a powerful critique of modern American society's collective slide away from sanity and offers an urgently needed prescription for reclaiming our bearings. Cited in recent months as the man who wrote the diagnostic criteria for narcissism, Allen Frances, M.D., has been at the center of the debate surrounding President Trump's mental state - quoted in Evan Osnos's May 2017 New Yorker article ("How Trump Could Get Fired") and publishing a much-shared opinion letter in the New York Times ("An Eminent Psychiatrist Demurs on Trump’s Mental State"). Frances argues that Trump is "bad, not mad" - and that the real question to wrestle with is how we as a country could have chosen him as our leader"--Provided by publisher.
