Book Synopsis Phony Culture by : James E. Combs
Book excerpt: Questioning why Americans remain uneasy at the End of History, contends that we are blighted by the construction of a phony culture dominated by the value of the confidence man, and demonstrates America's transformation into this culture of artifice, where the practices of confidence tend to make everything and everybody into a phony. The author explores the various dimensions of American cultural phoniness, ranging over phony language, phony people, phony places and things, phony events, phony deals, and phony politics.
