The Krantzlers (director and codirector of the Creative Divorce, Love, and Marriage Counseling Center, San Francisco) look at the psychological disorders that they believe underpin the instant gratification ethos of the dot-com economy. Basing their work on interviews with a range of people from the industry who came to their center looking for help, they argue that the Silicon Valley dream is the American dream "gone ballistic." It is an unhealthy dream in which money and power are the only things that matter in life, and it is identified as a universal psychological syndrome. Anecdotal evidence is marshalled to demonstrate the harmful fallacies that underlie the dot-com ethos, and suggestions are made for finding a healthier life style. Annotation c.
