Answer: The correct answer is : The Lonely Crowd

Explanation: Lonely Crowd was written by the sociologist David Riesman who said that today's society was giving birth to a new man. In times past, both men and women were people who went "to their inner self", were defined by their values and objectives. Currently the dominant personality is directed "towards the other", they define themselves according to the opinions and objectives of others.
