We have over-valued our capacity for thought at the expense of ignoring those deep forces which drive us. We have done this at the individual level, but also at the social level. Our wider society - international, national, local and familial - is driven by powerful primitive forces which shape our human community. Our artists reflect these forces back to us. A weakness of democracy is that politicians too often collude with pathology instead of leading us out of it. This book uses psychoanalytical insights into perversion to explain our present crisis and to show that we are at a historic social turning point.
