Anxiety
The philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, in "The Concept of Anxiety" (1844), described anxiety or dread associated with the "dizziness of freedom" and suggested the possibility for positive resolution of anxiety through the self-conscious exercise of responsibility and choosing. In "Art and Artist" (1932), the psychologist Otto Rank wrote that the psychological trauma of birth was the pre-eminent human symbol of existential anxiety and encompasses the creative person's simultaneous fear of – and desire for – separation, individuation, and differentiation.
Ernest Mander
In 1935, Mander began writing popular works on psychology, "Psychology for Everyman (and Woman)" being followed in 1936 by "Clearer Thinking (Logic for Everyman)". The titles were frequently revised and in print until at least 1970, selling around 600,000 copies. In 1936, he also wrote "To Alarm New Zealand", which argued that white British immigrants to the country should be encouraged.
