Self-Help and Ability
PRACTICES of Self-Help and Self-Optimization combined with the expectation of positive thinking belong to the very core of US culture and US ideology.

In addition to a historical overview, case studies explore issues such as biomedicalization, inspiration porn, the addicted body, self-care and healing, and dystopian progress.
