This volume offers a detailed analysis of how the current phase of capitalism is eating away at social, interpersonal, and psychological health. Drawing upon an interdisciplinary body of research, Bruce Rogers-Vaughn describes an emerging type of human distress—what he calls ‘third order suffering’—that may be hastily becoming normative. Additionally, this new paradigm of affliction is an increasing number of entangled with already-existing genres of misery, such as sexism, racism, and class struggle, mutating their appearances and mystifying their intersections. Along the best way, Rogers-Vaughn presents stimulating reflections on how widespread views regarding secularization and postmodernity would possibly divert attention from up to date capitalism as the material origin of these developments. In any case, he explores his own clinical practice, which yields clues for addressing the double unconsciousness of third order suffering and outlining a vision for taking care of souls in these troubling times.
