Middle Mind

<p>Acclaimed social critic Curtis White describes an all-encompassing and little-noticed force taking over our culture and our lives that he calls the Middle Mind: the current failure of the American imagination in the media politics education art technology and religion. Irreverent provocative and far-reaching White presents a clear vision of this dangerous mindset that threatens America's intellectual and cultural freedoms concluding with an imperative to reawaken and unleash the once powerful American imagination.</p><p><em>The Middle Mind</em> is pragmatic plainspoken populist contemptuous of the Right's narrowness and incredulous before the Left's convolutions. It wants to protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and has bought an SUV with the intent of visiting it. It even understands in some indistinct way how that very SUV spells the Arctic's doom.</p>
