The modern world has brought about numerous benefits and joys, including technology, medicine, and transport. However, it can also feel overwhelming, with many people struggling with feelings of greed, despair, and agitation.

By understanding how we got to where we are and digging into the history of ideas, this book helps us form a calmer, more authentic, and resilient relationship with the complexities of modern life.
