The book explores humanity's troubling tendency to neglect global and human survival, likening it to individual psychopathology. The author introduces a 'sociocultural therapy' inspired by individual psychotherapy, aimed at addressing societal failures. Key contributions include recognizing societal pathologies, analyzing their defenses, and creating a therapeutic model applicable at a social level. Additionally, it offers a prototypical example of this therapy, providing a fresh perspective on tackling global threats through a psychological lens.
