Book synopsis

Inaugurates a trilogy that signals the summation of cultural theorist and Freud scholar Philip Rieff's lifework. Rieff takes aim at significant "deathworks" in modern literature, art, and history and seeks to show what is at stake in the "culture wars" raging over euthanasia, education, medical research, sexuality, race, class, and gender.
