Offering a lively and original analysis of five worldviews\u0026amp;nbsp;- conservatism, national populism, liberalism, the new left and social democracy --Thomas Prosser argues that our views tend to satisfy self-interest, albeit indirectly, and that progressive worldviews are not as altruistic as their adherents believe.\u0026amp;nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut \u003ci\u003ewhat's in it for me?\u003c\/i\u003e is far from pessimistic. Prosser contends that recognition of self-interest makes us more self-reflective, allowing us to see humanity in adversaries and countering the influence of echo chambers.
