Description: The progress and culture of Western society didn't bring happiness, instead, depression rates are rising

"Western culture has acquired a fairly negative image when it comes to mental health issues. Although highly advanced technologically a price has been paid in terms of our increasing fragmentation and detachment from family and community and an appetite for 24-hour living and working. We're more anxious and depressed than ever before and the situation is worsening rather than getting better. The argument that modern technology would one day protect us from ill-health and distress and open up a world of leisure and, by implication greater happiness, is looking decidedly dated."
