Interesting, but not great

3 stars

Repeats some points made in "Escape from Freedom", with less of the psychological insight. The last chapter is very particular - it veers off into proposing a political program for the Socialist Party-Socialist Democratic Federation to develop what he terms Humanistic Socialism. One of the most notable points is his constant warning of the danger of mass manipulation by subconscious means.
