Superman On The Couch

Picked up this book by Danny Fingeroth yesterday. Looked like it might be interesting, but really not even as good as the Superheroes & Philoz book.
I guess maybe it's for Young Readers or something. Or maybe I've just thought WAY TOO MUCH about the social implications of superfolks already and need to write my own damn book.
I just feel like, so far, there's no insight or even ideas in here. It's all "Why are so many superheroes orphans?" "Would you like to be a superhero?" "Is the Superhero inside us all?"
I guess it's more of a psycho-analyst (duh, see the title) take on things, in terms of Fingeroth says very little himself, but asks the reader what the readers thinks of this and that.
