Exploring societal and psychological issues of the late 19th century, the work delves into the concept of "degeneration" as a response to modernity's challenges. Nordau critiques contemporary culture, art, and the rise of the "decadent" movement, arguing that these phenomena reflect a deeper malaise affecting society. Through a blend of social commentary and analysis, the author offers insights into the health of civilization, questioning the moral and intellectual state of his time.
