Growing Up Absurd: Problems of Youth in the Organized Society Paperback - 2012
by Paul Goodman; Foreword by Casey Nelson Blake; Afterword by Susan Sontag
First published in 1960, this book takes the crisis of disaffected youth as indicative of the crisis within the culture at large, which Goodman describes as being run by corporations that provide employment (when they do) but not work in any meaningful sense, work that engages body and soul.
From the rear cover
In this book, the author assumes that the young really need a more worthwhile world in order to grow up at all, and confronts this real need with the world that they have been getting.
