Title: The things that matter most
First published: 1994
Description: The Things That Matter Most is for people who wonder why social problems don't seem to go away, no matter how much money we pour into them, who think that families do matter, that fidelity does count, that fighting for one's country is noble, who long for a sense of purpose more transcendent than collecting another paycheck. With an objective, analytic eye, Thomas traces our current national malaise -- rampant disease, crime, and despair -- to the false promises of the sixties. - Jacket flap.
