Nice Place, Shame About the Human Race Allan Gilmour

Present day society has over the last sixty years, undergone immense transformation processes in which because of this rapid development, an attempt has been made to create a greater awareness in our everyday modern attitudes and behaviour. Spending child and adolescent years in the UK and his working life in Germany, the author has concentrated most of his observations upon these two cultures - examining modern behaviour both towards our planet and one another, and of stressing the importance of discovering oneself for more personal happiness. A light read, and occasionally ironic, this book observes social habits, routines and characteristics which make-up our western-cultures of today.
