Brooks shatters stereotypes about charity in America - including the myth that the political Left is more compassionate than the Right.

In middle age, many strivers begin to find success coming harder and harder, rewards less satisfying and family relationships withering. In response, they do what strivers always do: they double down on work in an attempt to outrun decline and weakness, and deny the changes that are becoming more and more obvious. The result is often anger, fear and disappointment at a time in life that they imagined would be full of joy, fulfilment and pride. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Brooks contends that after years of focusing on economic growth and traditional social values, it is time for a new kind of conservatism - one that helps the vulnerable without mortgaging our children's future.

It is an inclusive movement with a positive agenda to help people lead happier, more hopeful, and more satisfied lives.

Brooks explodes the myths about happiness in America.

America faces a new culture war. It is not a war about guns, abortions, or gays; rather it is a war against the creeping changes to our entrepreneurial culture, the true bedrock of who we are as a people.

Many Americans have forgotten the evils of socialism and the predations of the American Great Society's welfare-state programs.
