...1st Chunk: Intro + Summary (NOT DONE)..

In "The Politics of Experience", R.D Laing talks about how humans today became who they are.The artical brings up that "the ordinary person is a shrivelled, desiccated fragment of what a person can be", which is basically saying that people today are LESS then what they can be, they don't try hard enough to get places in life. He also brings up the fact that we don't use our bodies , unless we need to . We don't do anything extra in life, we just do what we need to do to survive, and stay alive, nothing more.
