Cultural Amnesia : America's Future and the Crisis of Memory
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Cultural Amnesia is a compelling book with the answer to many of our contemporary problems. Don't forget to read it.”–Jewish World Review
Book Description
According to Bertman, just as an individual needs memories to maintain a sense of personal identity, so does a nation need them in order to survive. Like Alzheimer victims, however, today's Americans are rapidly losing a consciousness of history, and with it, a sense of national identity and direction.
