Branko Bokun: HOMO PUERILIS
Western hypocrisy, the American infantile mentality and Islam


In his controversial book the author argues:

That the mind, of which humans are so proud, is merely over-activity within the prefrontal cortex, a manifestation of its unstable state on account of being over-grown, its over-growth having been generated by man's agitating and irritating neoteny

That whereas man's continued neoteny perpetuates his infantile state, woman responds to her maternal instinct and reaches maturity

That man's mind, with its fantasies, absurdities, fanaticism and idealism, is the source of the ridiculous and of the tragic

That man's aggressiveness, violence, crimes, terrorism, persecutions and wars are related to his infantile mentality, which he carries into adulthood and into old age

That the Western cult of individual freedom and independence is contrary to the interests of our by nature social and co-operative species, and that this obsession is generating the ills of Western societies such as selfishness, self-righteousness, alienation, loneliness, anxiety, stress, stress-related diseases, mental disorders, obesity, drug addiction, and suicide

That our material affluence reinforces the infantile mentality and its pretentiousness and thus its insecurity

That the infantile mentality's desire to dominate nature is destroying nature

That the globalisation of American capitalism is consuming the future, transforming our planet into an overpopulated desert

That, with her maturity, woman could help man to evolve from his dolce vita puerility towards maturity by organising a new culture in which her innate maternal attributes became the supreme social and moral values

That a sexual selection guided by woman would result in the procreation of a more humane humanity

That man's present obsession with sex, sexual deviations and vices is a left-over from puberty and the continuing infantilism of man's mind

The book explains the origins of Western hypocrisy, of the American infantile mentality, and the causes of their conflict with the Muslim world.
