American Nervousness by George M. Beard explores the rising mental and physical unrest among Americans in the late 19th century, attributing it to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and modern lifestyle stresses. Beard examines how these societal changes lead to symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, and insomnia, which he considers signs of a widespread nervous disorder. He discusses the cultural and technological factors fueling this nervousness and warns of its potential long-term consequences if left unaddressed, highlighting the importance of balance and moderation in an increasingly fast-paced world. American Nervousness - Its Causes and Consequences is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1881.
