Most of us are taught from a young age to be winners and avoid being losers. But what does it mean to win or lose? Does winning make us happy? This title undertakes an unprecedented investigation of winning and losing in American society, what we are really after as we struggle to win, our collective beliefs about winners and losers, and more.
