Publisher Review: Where did popular culture come from? Why is it the way it is? How does it
influence Americans in general and Christians in particular? Ken Myers
provides fascinating answers to these questions. He sees pop culture as a
culture of diversion, preventing people from asking questions about their
origin and destiny and about the meaning of life. Two aspects stand out--a
quest for novelty and a desire for instant gratification. In addition, this
culture offers something very appealing--the illusion that you set your own
standards, you can choose, you are the master of your fate, you deserve a
break, you're worth it. |
