Description

Book Synopsis
Presents a collection of topical essays. Pivoting the analysis on news-making events, this book exposes the fallacies of our penchant for interpreting the behaviour of 'sane' persons as goal-directed and therefore sensible, and the behaviour of 'insane' persons as caused by a 'mental illness' and therefore senseless.
