Saving The Modern Soul by Eva Illouz
Therapy, Emotions, and the Culture of Self-Help
A sociological analysis of how psychotherapy and the self-help industry reshaped modern emotional life and intimate relationships, arguing that therapeutic discourse and market forces have transformed individuals into self-managing, consumer-oriented subjects by normalizing new emotional norms, commodifying feelings, and recasting social problems as personal psychological issues.
