During the Christmas holidays (2006) rummaging through my
accumulated archives of published and unpublished materials, I came across this
essay. It was written in the late 1970s after completing my stint in academia and
receiving my Ph.D. Although it became
part of “A Look Back to See Ahead”
(2007), and subsequently as a 2nd edition retitled “Time Out for Sanity: Blueprint for Dealing
with an Anxious Society” (2015), it was never published.
“Is society sick?” was originally a ninety page essay with incidences
now dated, but themes showing a stirring resemblance to themes in 2021. After
reading this essay, ask yourself: has society moved towards healing, and if
not, why not?”
