      The website of the Iranian Book House also indicates that nowadays self-help books, which offer the most superficial perception of human personality to their audience, have become the second most popular book genre in Iran.  Using the mechanisms of dehistoricization, social indifference, and focusing on individual success, these books make the audience introspective, encourage them into self-interest and indifference, and soothe them by separating them from the external environment and the social contradictions. There is no critique of inflation, unemployment, the lack of social liberty, and the environmental crisis in such books. One only has to think of their own individual success, calmness and attitude.
