Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. indexed, bound in original softcover with black, pink and white coloured titles to the front panel and black and white coloured titles to the back strip. "The past 2 centuries delivered individual and political freedoms promised unprecedented opportunities for personal fulfilment. Yet citizens of affluent countries are encouraged to pursue lives of consumerism, endless choice and the pleasures of the body. Clive Hamilton argues that the paradox of modern consumer life is that we are deprived of an inner freedom by our very pursuit of our own desires. He turns to metaphysics to find a source of transformation that lies beyond the cultural, political and social philosophies that form the bedrock of contemporary Western thought." -- Rear panel blurb.
