Theodore Dalrymple : Spoilt Rotten: The Toxic Cult of Sentimentality before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Spoilt Rotten: The Toxic Cult of Sentimentality:

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Marvelous! Just like everything else he's ever writtenBy Bernard ChapinReading Dr. Dalrymple is more than just reading an essayist, but rather, one has the experience of hearing speak a fellow who--in my opinion--is the wisest man in any room. I first started reading Dr. Daniels/Dalrymple in 2000 through the New Criterion and he soon became one of my favorite authors. Whether he's addressing art, medicine or even the pitfalls of the Beat Generation, the eminent doctor crafts a narrative unlike any other. I always experience hearing his words as if they came from an ancient ancestor who has seen all and come back to speak of it. No praise for Dr. Dalrymple is too great in my view. May he live forever! In this book, Spoilt Rotten, he takes on the toxic cult of sentimentality. He does so through the use of six lengthy chapters and a full introduction. The best of these, and the most necessary, is Chapter 5 "The Cult of the Victim," which is so instructive that I will be making a couple of videos on it for my channel. My guys will really love hearing it, and there is no better way to describe the cancerous impact pop culture has had on our populace than the current widespread embrace of victimology. Who the heck would ever want to be a victim for any ? I can't imagine, but this admission merely illustrates how much of an outlier those of us are who possess common sense in 2012. The effect of victimization has been absolutely sick, but fear not, Dr. Dalrymple is just the antidote one needs for cultural decay.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. but Dalrymple is always refreshing with his willingness to cut through conventional "politically correct" notions like a knife tBy CustomerThis is more an essay than a whole book, and repeats a little (the author is putting together stuff from a host of articles), but Dalrymple is always refreshing with his willingness to cut through conventional "politically correct" notions like a knife through butter. So it's very much worth reading.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy C AnnWhat can be said other than this is another super articulated and founded work by THEODORE DALRYMPLE!

Not since assault on Mother Theresa have so many sacred cows been slaughtered in such a short volume.' Spectator 'One of our most celebrated essayists.' Toby Young, Mail on Sunday '[A] cultural highlight.' Observer 'Surgical demolition.' Guardian In this perceptive and witty book, Theodore Dalrymple unmasks the hidden sentimentality that is suffocating public life. Under the multiple guises of raising children well, caring for the underprivileged, assisting the less able and doing good generally, we are achieving quite the opposite -for the single purpose of feeling good about ourselves. Dalrymple takes the reader on both an entertaining and at times shocking journey through social, political, popular and literary issues as diverse as child tantrums, aggression, educational reform, honour killings, sexual abuse, Che Guevara, Eric Segal, Romeo and Juliet, the McCanns, public and the role of suffering, and shows the perverse results when we abandon logic in favour of the cult of feeling.
