Accustomed to unprecedented affluence and efficiency, we in America now believe that our lives can be effortless and painless, and that we can concentrate on attaining pleasurable experiences as a matter of daily routine. In this book, Huer describes "post-human" American society as defying history and humanity-and brilliantly so-by creating a life without pain, and social relations without inconveniences. In short, this "post-human" America wastes little energy on human connections, concentrating wholly on the dynamic, but ultimately futile, pursuit of self-interest. This provocatively original book explores how this new type of society and its human relations have evolved and what it portends to the way we live with one another. Huer contends that, however ingenuously and inventively we deny it, no society can survive without the thoughts and actions that are related to and inspired by other human beings.
