"Social upheaval in early 20th-century Europe
is the historical setting for this seminal study by the Spanish
philosopher, José Ortega y Gasset.
"Continuously in print since 1932,
Ortega's vision of Western culture as sinking to its lowest common
denominator and drifting toward chaos brought its author international
fame and has remained one of the influential books of the 20th century."
" I
highly recommend this book for those seeking to explain or understand
what is currently happening in society.
Ortega lays out the creation of
the mass consumer and mass man who revels in mediocre accomplishments
and who becomes for the continuing degeneration of culture.
His
description of how nations are formed is not to be missed."
