Maybe not the best place for this discussion, but also maybe it is.
I'm from England but moved to Canada six years ago. A thing I've noticed between being here & in trips to the US is how much more popular self-help books are compared to back home.
Does anyone have a theory on why this is? I think there's probably a really interesting cultural reason for it but I haven't worked it out yet.

I don’t know but funny you should mention that because Stephen Fry mentioned that in an interview once. He didn’t give a solid reason why but he did say how self help books are huge in the U.S when giving and answer about British humour compared to American humour.
