<p><i>Jon Ronson's captivating and brilliant exploration of one of our world's most underappreciated forces: shame.</i><br><br>A great renaissance of public shaming is sweeping our land. Through social media, justice has been democratized and the silent majority are getting a voice.
But are we using our voice for good?<br><br>Instead we are mercilessly finding people’s faults and defining the boundaries of normality by ruining the lives of those who position themselves outside it. We are using shame as a form of social control.<br><br>In this prescient, unnerving yet often hilarious book, Jon Ronson meets the victims of modern public shamings and, in doing so, plunges us deep into the heart of a very modern terror: the terror of being found out.
Full of eye-opening truths about the escalating war on human flaws – and the very scary part we all play in it – this is Jon Ronson at his very best.<br><br><b>A <i>Sunday Times</i> Book of the Year when first published, <i>So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed</i> is now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.</b></p>
