This is a short book about madness - the madness of the world. Every person, every city, every nation, every continent and the planet Earth itself is steadily going insane. What are the causes? Can anything be done? Can the process be arrested and even reversed?

This book concentrates on the United Kingdom as one of the most deranged countries in this Mad World, but a host of other nations would have served just as well.

The major causes of insanity are: 1) religion 2) nationalism 3) corporations 4) capitalism 5) the family.

It's time to put the world on the psychiatrist's couch and listen to its tale of fear, alienation, angst, inauthenticity, disenchantment, over-expectation, constant disappointment and thwarted dreams. Never has so much been promised to the ordinary man and woman and so little delivered.

This is one of a series of books by the Pythagorean Illuminati.
