Destruction: A book about hope

Author's name: Mark Manson Publisher: Dar Al Tanweer for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2019 Literary classification: Personal development and self-improvement Book overview: Have you ever wondered why increasing communication between people makes them more quarrelsome? And have you ever wondered what makes people feel more anxious and miserable despite their lives becoming easier? Well, buckle up!... Uncle Mark will take you on a new journey! Just as his book "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" questioned our usual traditional wisdom about what makes us happy, the book "Doom: A Book About Hope" questions all our assumptions about what makes life worth living. We are living in an astonishing time! Materially, everything is better than ever before – we are now freer and more prosperous than any previous generation in human history. But everything seems – for some reason – as if it is terribly bad beyond repair. At this moment in history, when we have access to what our ancestors only dreamed of in terms of education, technology, and communication, many of us find ourselves overwhelmed by a dominant feeling of hopelessness. So, what is going on? That is what Mark Manson is trying to help us understand.
