Great philosophical/social treatise
By A Customer on February 26, 2002
Format: Paperback
Despite its title, this book isn't really political as such. Full title is "Self Made Man in America - The Myth of Rags to Riches." What it does is point out the silliness of our society mythologizing the self-made man. this book demonstrates the old Biblical adage that it's not money itself that is the root of all evil, it is the *love* of money.
