    Seán Desmond Healy explores the relationship between boredom, self, and culture. He argues that boredom arises from a lack of meaning and purpose, and is exacerbated by modern culture. Boredom reflects a disconnect between the self and society. However, boredom can also drive cultural and personal change as people seek new sources of meaning. The book examines how boredom is a social phenomenon linked to changes in work, education, and leisure over time.
