About “The Culture of Narcissism”
The book examines the emergence of a narcissistic personality in contemporary society, characterized by emotional shallowness, fear of intimacy, and a loss of interest in the future. It discusses how emancipation from traditional taboos has not brought spiritual or sexual peace, and how cultural shifts have led to sexual promiscuity, a war between the sexes, and the replacement of traditional success symbols with new ones like the happy hooker.
