Interesting approach from 7 deadly sins/virtues to examine what is going wrong with our society. Nothing new or startling but sound scientific evidence to support what we are instinctively suspecting, in terms of greed, apathy, short term politics, racism etc. It is very beneficial to have it pulled apart and examined in detail so that you can see what underpins our current moral viewpoint. Easy to read too

This book offers a lot of food for thought about modern society. Perhaps I would have liked it more if I had been British, though. There was nothing new in this book, just putting together information we already knew about.
