As a disciplined and sober person, you will be gratified to know that the author of this book is about as high-minded as they come. But don't give up yet.
Try the chapter on Ronald Reagan's presidential impersonation. Consider how Thorstein Veblen--the ultimate alien--came to understand the natives better than they understood themselves. Trace a connection between Walker Evans' photographs and learning economics like crazy at the age of five. See why it serves the interests of an English department semiotician to count road kill as discourse.
In brief, the essays presented here--written in a romping style--are all concerned with the interplay of ideas, cultural patterns, and life experiences within an American setting.
