America today faces unprecedented division and tension—but how did we get here? More importantly, what can we do about it? In his insightful new book, American Anxiety, Don Neeper examines the deeper roots of our social polarization, beyond the usual blame assigned to political parties.
Drawing upon his extensive background as a physicist and environmental advocate, Don uses clear, accessible language to uncover the systemic issues embedded within American culture, rules, and customs. He explains why our society feels so different from the more cooperative atmosphere between 1960 and 2000, and offers practical ways we can move beyond our current stalemate—together.
Don Neeper is a retired physicist whose distinguished career spans groundbreaking research in low-temperature physics, pioneering contributions at Los Alamos National Laboratory, and dedicated advocacy for environmental protection and pollution remediation. Driven by his passion for science, society, and sustainable solutions, Don now shares insights from years of thoughtful exploration through his writing and public outreach.
