Britain on the couch : how keeping up with the Joneses has depressed us since 1950

James, Oliver, 1953-2010
Books, Manuscripts
Between the 1950s and the end of the 1970s depression mushroomed, especially among the poor and young women. This book shows that what depressed them and the rest of us was a rampant keeping up with the Joneses and a gender rancour between the sexes that may be the worst the world has ever seen.
