A nation of strangers Hardcover – January 1, 1972 by Vance Oakley Packard (Author) Vance Packard, one of our most incisive social commentators, in this book deals with an urgent problem: the mass uprooting and the fragmentation of our society, which is turning into a "nation of strangers". We are living in a continually changing environment, fast relinquishing a basic human need: a sense of community. Forty million Americans now lead feebly rooted lives. At least a fifth of all Americans move one or more times a year, and the pace is increasing. What new institutions is this rootlessness creating.? What is its impact on our values, our behavior, our emotional well-being? https://www.amazon.com/nation-strangers-Vance-Oakley-Packard/dp/B0006C4RBA?ref_=ast_author_dp&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.co2unvVvW_u5LWD-ic1idnYeF1ir43RzBhYFJcboScckh4ZISNkt66c337jUJbm_foVBWfqGvZHqkctn3TLWMkom1plDtEIlipNBna54ZEMnd0assbjj-Wv08ArMWEitdptn7tL40kNkIwImhMlYVmiKF0HReAKe55pb_RsCyChRUbqCAyi-...
