Description

Theo Deutinger's Joy and Fear offers a unique visual perspective on modernity. Brilliantly adapting Otto Neurath's pioneering study Modern Man in the Making, this book tracks the successes and failures of modern society. The book highlights how modernity has reshaped humanity, with its promises largely fulfilled for some but not others. It depicts global issues such as agriculture, warfare, and the welfare state through a clear and accessible visual language. Thematic and chronological affinities allow cross-referencing between topics throughout the book. By presenting complex issues in this way, Joy and Fear brings clarity to today's world. The book is aimed at anyone interested in understanding the evolution of modernity and its quirks and pitfalls.
