In western countries, paths to modernity created socio-cultural conditions conducive to the dissemination of the language of nerves. This book examines historically the ways in which neurosis became a contagious diagnosis in Sweden, attaining the status of a national malady.

This book characterizes what we already know, have observed, and identified as real problems with our educational system; relates the identified problems to more in-depth causes; delves further into these causes; and proposes fundamentally different and unique solutions to the problems with our schools and our society. The chapter units of this book are highly interrelated. Chapter 1 discusses the theory related to the neurosis caused by unfulfilled needs leading to disruptive students. Chapter 2 explains, in greater detail, how the developed neurosis affects our students, our schools and our society. The resulting accelerating degenerative effects on teachers and administrators; all resulting in our ineffective schools are explained in chapters 3 and 4. A unique solution to our dilemma is presented in chapter 5 while Chapter 7 presents ideas on how to execute the solution. And several factors which may help with the funding of our schools are discussed in Chapter 6.

In Neurosis and Human Growth, Dr. Horney discusses the neurotic process as a special form of the human development, the antithesis of healthy growth. She unfolds the different stages of this situation, describing neurotic claims, the tyranny or inner dictates and the neurotic's solutions for relieving the tensions of conflict in such emotional attitudes as domination, self-effacement, dependency, or resignation. Throughout, she outlines with penetrating insight the forces that work for and against the person's realization of his or her potentialities. First Published in 1950. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
