Book Synopsis The Anatomy of Despondency by : Jacob Teunis Harskamp
Book excerpt: In a text-orientated approach, this study presents a rich mosaic depicting a tradition of European socio-cultural criticism since the French Revolution. Accepting the inevitability of technological advance, critics rejected the proud assumption of progress and stressed the negatives instead.
