Abstract

In the post-industrial era, American society has undergone unprecedented development. With industrial civilization, human ability of conquering and transforming the nature is increasing while living environment is deteriorating; people's material life is more prosperous, and so is the consumer culture. On the other hand, more ecological crises appear; under the natural and social ecological imbalance, the spiritual world of humans is facing a huge crisis. White Noise focuses on the industrial civilization, mass media, consumer culture and ideology of the modern living conditions, which affect behaviors, thoughts, feelings and psychological aspects of humans in the post-industrial era in American society, thus showing a deep humanistic concern.
