?One of the world's most prominent psychiatrists? (The Atlantic), Allen Frances, MD?past leader of the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders?delivers an unprecedented critique of modern American society's slide away from sanity and offers an urgently needed prescription for restoring our collective health and protecting our fragile democracy. Twilight of American Sanity authoritatively situates the rise of Donald Trump within the context of a nation increasingly gripped by delusion and blind to challenges posed by inequality, technological displacement, global warming, resource degradation, and overpopulation?threats that could doom future generations. ?Blaming Trump for all our troubles,? Frances writes, ?misses the deeper, underlying societal sickness that made possible his unlikely ascent.?
