Shame is a powerful and sometimes useful tool: When we publicly shame corrupt politicians, abusive celebrities, or predatory corporations, we reinforce values of fairness and justice. But as Cathy O'Neil argues in this revelatory book, shaming has taken a new and dangerous turn. It is increasingly being weaponized - used as a way to shift responsibility for social problems from institutions to individuals. From the New York Times bestselling author of "Weapons of Math Destruction".
