Antisocial behavior takes on many forms, from rebellious teens with
green hair and pierced skin to the truly dangerous homicidal
individuals whose horrible stories fill our newspapers. Parents
worry about their children as they are exposed to the heated
climate of violence in contemporary society, a time of decaying
morals and values.
The rise in sociopathic behavior among adults and children,
whether in tense inner cities or in tranquil suburban and rural
settings, is masterfully chronicled by Dr. Benjamin B. Wolman, a
leading psychologist and noted national expert who has studied
these trends for over half a century. "There is a growing incidence
of sociopathic antisocial behavior . . . coupled with an attitude
of moral apathy," Dr. Wolman asserts. He cites international
statistics pointing to a showdown between dangerous individuals-the
violent, the charming, and the passive-and the societies that
create them.
How has the spread of democratic ideals actually increased the
potential for antisocial behavior? What social and cultural factors
must be changed if free societies are to reduce this alarming
trend?
Rather than simply complain about the problem, Dr. Wolman
examines the familial and societal causes, and proposes clear-cut
solutions to the problem-including radical changes to our
educational system and the mass media.
