Download and read online ebook The Self on the Shelf write by Gary Greenberg. This book was released on 1994-08-04. The Self on the Shelf available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Self on the Shelf examines the cultural and philosophical determinants of popular recovery books. Greenberg argues that this literature can be read as documents of the prevailing understanding of the self in American society. The construction of the self promoted by recovery literature is seen as a nihilistic one insofar as it denies the significance of what continental philosophy calls the Other. In this sense the self-help books are correct in their assertion that we have lost sight of how to love, but their proposed solution shows up as a recapitulation and strengthening of the conditions that gave rise to this situation in the first place. Greenbergs critique provides a commentary on the difficulties that face our culture in achieving any sense of meaningful community, and on the way that this problem surfaces in a highly popular discourse.
