Socialcide™: Searing New Book, Nation’s Rotting Social Fabric “Loving Themselves To Death”
by William Klein Expert in Internet Marketing..FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Roselle Park, NJ (November 07, 2014) –
There’s no way to sugar-coat the conclusions of Licensed Clinical
Social Worker, Leo J. Battenhausen; Americans have become so obsessed
with themselves that their country’s once-great bedrock of dignity and
respect is crumbling from underneath them. Childhood social problems
prevail at record levels, crime is becoming more heinous and the average
American is now just a deranged sociopathic shadow of their former
self.
Battenhausen calls this shift ‘Socialcide’. In his new
book, ‘Socialcide: How America is Loving Itself to Death’, he presents
this fatal problem in its true light, while urging all Americans to
change and make their nation great once again.
Synopsis:
What
happens to a society when common courtesy, values, morals and kindness
are not merely disregarded, but considered old-fashioned and outdated?
Why are more and more children being diagnosed with social and emotional
disorders today than ever before in history? When has true face-to-face
communication become unwanted and obsolete? Where has America's sense
of decency and honor gone over the past 35 years? Why do we find humor
and entertainment at the expense of others' dignity and innocence?
The
words "narcissism; "sociopath" and "psychopath" are thrown around on
television daily in describing those responsible for heinous acts of
school shootings, murder, rape and child abuse. 'Narcissist" is
currently one of the most searched words on the World Wide Web.
Meanwhile, the field of Psychology wants to eliminate "Narcissistic
Personality Disorder" from its references. When children are becoming
less willing to leam, work or take responsibility for their actions, and
parents are "too busy" to enforce morals and consequences when raising
their children, we have a social problem. Socialcide is destroying
families, marriages and true love. The media manipulates us, technology
corrupts us, and spiritual warfare remains undetected to the naked eye
because of it. America is Loving Itself to Death and Socialcide explains
why.
“The truth is that, if America continues to ignore the evil
behaviors of so many, we risk losing everything that brought us
together in the first place,” explains Battenhausen. “We urgently need
to return to a culture of dignity and respect, while being aware that
the technology apparently taking us into the future is actually causing
us to regress.”
Continuing, “It’s also time that we regained our
confidence in spirituality and the existence of a higher power. It
appears that we can’t just look after ourselves.”
Early reviews
for the book have been extremely positive. New York Times bestselling
author, Shanna Hogan, comments, “In Socialcide author Leo J.
Battenhausen has put together a compelling examination of the American
epidemic of extreme narcissism that has invaded society. Battenhausen's
engrossing account of this dangerous trend is thought-provoking and
paints a scary picture of the impact of the trend. How dangerous is
America's obsession with self-absorption? Perhaps "selfies" are just the
latest example of how full of one's self one can get."
Dr.
Edward M. Merski adds, “A relevant and realistic connection between the
fields of psychology and theology. Some personalities fall short of
scientific explanation or reason. Battenhausen combines the spiritual
and psychological to effectively explain America's growing love of self,
its dangers and where it has come from.”
‘Socialcide: How
America is Loving Itself to Death’ will be released this fall. For more
