Except this psychobabble was published by the leading business periodical of its era and a reputable news gathering team from Time Life. There seems to be nary a whiff of medical common sense in its diagnosis or prescriptives. I wonder what they thought of the company dining room’s calorie recomendations or the three martini lunch.

I also love to find modern examples that seem like they could be pulled from decades ago. For example, “The Rules”, from the 1990s looks a lot like “How to Catch and Hold a Man”, from the 1960s. Of how things change, but how they also stay the same.
