Are We Freaks Of Nature?
by Dr Branko Bokun

His life-long experience in economic studies, social as well as clinical psychology, his life under Fascism, Communism and incarceration in forced labour camps has fitted Dr Bokun to discuss a wide variety of aspects of the human condition.

The question posed by this book does not deny current accepted theories about evolution, but develops and analyses many of the issues which arise and are as yet unresolved ­ such as ‘Was the increase in our brain’s volume the real factor behind our upright posture?’ and ‘Are the mind’s abstractions merely the result of infantile game-playing in our large but ultimately immature brain?’ and ‘Can women help men in a quest for such maturity?’ Also ‘Can our mind influence our immune system?’ and ‘Why of all the species in nature are we the most addicted to excitement and sex?’

Humour: Old People’s Only Saviour
A New View on Ageing
by Dr Branko Bokun

This book explains the origin and potential of a sense of humour, and how a sense of humour can help us to reach a more balanced way of reasoning.

Above all, the book proposes a new theory of the causes of ageing, giving suggestions on how people can improve their senescence so that it becomes a less agitated period of life, one to look forward to rather than fear.

The Origin of the Mind and its Follies

by Dr Branko Bokun

Is our Mind an aberration of the brain caused by its excessive irritation and growth? Why do we consider ourselves a superior species when this concept is based on our Mind and its abstract activities? Is the Mind a major and incremental source of stress, stress related diseases, mental disorders, aggression, crime, persecution, war, terrorism and self-destruction?

Considering the history of human atrocities, how can we call our species Homo sapiens sapiens?

How does the Mind manipulate our perception, and stifle intuition and intelligence? Why do the brains of men and women differ in size and reasoning? What does the American Mind hold in store for the rest of the planet? Why is the Mind the main source of ridicule?
Why, when we seem so proud of being the only species able to laugh, do we seldom notice we are also the only laughable species?

What is the essence of laughter? What is the potential of a sense of humour? Can a sense of humour redress the damage caused by the Mind’s world? How can a sense of humour encourage good humour, serenity, wisdom and intelligence? Should the sense of humour be part of the school curriculum and should we use it to re-write our national histories?

Dr Branko Bokun, author of the best selling Humour Therapy, suggests a different approach to the paradoxes of human reasoning, and with the answers to these questions exposes some of the most irrational and bizarre consequences.

Homo Puerilis


by Dr Branko Bokun

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

Dr Bokun argues 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. The globalisation of American capitalism is consuming the future, transforming our planet into an overpopulated desert.

Born in Dalmatia, Branko Bokun has studied at the Universities of Belgrade and Rome, La Sorbonne in Paris, and the London School of Economics.

Self-Help with Stress
by Dr Branko Bokun

In order to be able to prevent the continuous increase in stress related diseases and disorders, it might help to know the origin and the nature of stress, and the differences between stress, fear and anxiety.

In the book Self-Help with Stress, the author explains why stress related diseases and disorders are spreading so fast, particularly in the Western world.

Stress has become the major factor in ruling our attitudes and behaviour. The stronger the stress, the lesser the use of the analytical cerebral cortex and the caring limbic brain. Under stress our reasoning seems to be ruled by the ruthless, selfish and self-centred reptilian brain. This might explain the increase in vulgarity, cruelty and violence.

The book deals with stress related obtuseness, autism, infertility, impotence, fatigue at work, stage fright, insomnia, nightmares, hypertension, depression, panic, suicide, allergies, ageing, AIDS, and the opportunistic infections prospering on the low efficiency of the immune system caused by stress.

All rights available except Indian.
