Healthy and sick communities

Description
Information

Where is the line between a healthy and a sick community? Can you be part of an unhealthy community without knowing it? What marks the dividing line between true and false? How do you define and deal with normality? And where do you go to find useful answers to these difficult questions? Can psychology, religion, law or philosophy help us? Or perhaps good old common sense? The questions are many and so are the answers.

Martin Herbst takes us through isms, ideas, religions, and his own lived life to bring clarity to the variegated field of communities. He delivers a call for self-awareness that is highly relevant in many contexts. If we are to get out of the surveillance society we experience around us, this book is a good place to start.
