"Society Against Itself is in the tradition of psychodynamically based culture criticism from Sigmund Freud to Weston La Barre and M.D. Faber. Professor Schwarts refutes the widely held
ideology of political correctness (PC) while he explores its appeal. He shows that, far from enriching democracy, PC sabotages it."-Howard F. Stein, PhD, Professor and Special Assistant to the
Chair, Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, USA.
"Building upon careful case studies of self-destructive behavior in several familiar organizations in the U.S.-Including Harvard University, the Ford Motor Company, the United Church of Christ,
Antioch College, the New York Times, and the Cincinnati Police Department-Howard Schwartz shows how the anti-Oedipal moral tyranny of political correctness turns organizations against
themselves by overvaluing the female and motherly concern for equal love and undervaluing the male and fatherly concern for achievement and rational order."-Lloyd Sandelands, PhD, Professor of
Psychology and Professor of Management and Organization, University of Michigan, USA
