Book description
This is an accessible, lucid and stimulating account of the hidden
psychology of politics and the hidden politics of the psyche. It is
packed with original and imaginative ideas on economics, nationalism,
"good-enough" leadership, the citizen and the state, women and
men, fatherhood, and the citizen as a "therapist of the
world". Samuels offers trenchant and timely critiques of the crisis
in contemporary politics.
