In the 21st century, the obsession with one's own perfection increasingly resembles a disease fraught with depression, madness, and even suicide. British journalist Will Storr studied the evolution of social perfectionism and found its roots in ancient Greece, medieval Christianity, post-war capitalism, and modern Silicon Valley.
