Daniel J. Boorstin's prophetic vision of an America inundated by its own illusions is an essential resource for any reader who wants to distinguish the manifold deceptions of our culture from its few enduring truths.
"The book that best explains Trump's dominance may well have been published in 1962. In The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in America, the historian Daniel J. Boorstin described the image as a medium--a photograph, a movie, a representation of life, laid out on pulp or screen--that becomes, soon enough, a habit of mind." --The Atlantic
"Boorstin's book tells us how to see and listen, and how to think about what we see and hear."--George WillFirst published in 1962, this wonderfully provocative book introduced the notion of "pseudo-events"--events such as press conferences and presidential debates, which are manufactured solely in order to be reported--and the contemporary definition of celebrity as "a person who is known for his well-knownness."
