Bright-Sided

Barbara Ehrenreich talks about why she thinks America’s love affair with positive thinking has a negative side. Her new book Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America traces the origins of our sunny outlook and looks at how relentless positive thinking has led to an era of what Ehrenreich calls irrational optimism.
