The Middle Mind

the long version

Social critic Curtis White describes a little-noticed force taking over our culture and our lives that he calls the Middle Mind: the current failure of the American imagination in the media, politics, education, art, technology, and religion. Irreverent, provocative, and far-reaching, contemptuous of the Right's narrowness and incredulous before the Left's convolutions, White presents a clear vision of this dangerous mindset that threatens America's intellectual and cultural freedoms, concluding with an imperative to reawaken and unleash the once powerful American imagination.--From publisher description.
