Authority

the long version

Many people claim to feel an elusive sense of dissatisfaction in their home and work lives today, and authors Eugene Kennedy and Sara C. Charles, M.D., trace this problem to our lacking the sense that we are authoring our surrounding lives and, thus, acting with natural authority. Kennedy and Charles take the reader chapter by chapter through the crisis of authority in marriage and family; schools and colleges; workplaces and boardrooms; government; religious institutions and the media, providing examples of the problems we encounter when authority is absent.
