Forbidden Psychology: A Book for Dark Mnds

This book explores how people keep things unconscious and how that affects their thinking and behavior. It is a book for dark minds—that is, for people who are willing to consider topics and points of view that are out of the mainstream. Part I focuses on Individual Psychology, including topics such as, “The End-of-the-World Syndrome,” a disturbance found in today’s younger generation; “Extropaths and Intropaths,” a new way of categorizing mental disturbances; “The Banned Theory of Autism,” which studies new research on maternal depression and autism; “Emotional Abuse in Dysfunctional Families,” probing how severe emotional abuse affects personality formation; “Why Men Kill Women,” an examination of the origins of murderous woman-hatred; “The Need to be Right,” a study of the confirmation bias in human conflicts; and “Hysteria in Individuals and Groups,” a look at the psychodynamics of hysteria. Part 2 is about group psychology. It begins with “The Six Stages of Development for Civilizations,” a study of the development stages that civilizations go through; “The Radical Aversion to Psychology,” an examination of the growth of radicalism in America along with the decline of interest in psychology; “War and the Resistance to World Government,” a look at Freud’s conversation with Einstein about the human resistance to forming a world government; “Mental Disturbances of Groups,” comparing individual and group psychological disturbances; “The Forbidden Psychology of Race,” a study of the theory of systemic racism and its censorship of opposing points of view; and “Homosexual Rights and the Demise of the Boy Scouts,” a look at gay rights and the decline of the Boy Scouts in America. It ends with a psychosocial study, “Levels of Being,” which probes the six levels of functioning of human beings.
