Be very afraidthe cultural response to terror, pandemics, environmental devastation, nuclear annihilation, and other threats /[electronic resource] :by Robert Wuthnow. - New York ;Oxford University Press,2010. - 1 online resource (vii, 294 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Here, Wuthnow examines the human response to existential threats. Freud, he notes, famously taught that the standard psychological response to an overwhelming danger is denial. In fact, Wuthnow writes, the opposite is true: we seek ways of positively meeting the threat, of doing something even if it's wasteful and time-consuming.
