...study of Scandinavia, Manhattan Psychoanalyst Dr. Herbert Hendin found some significant clues. Norwegians, who are less emotionally dependent and less repressed than their neighbors, average less than half the suicide rate of Sweden and Denmark.

"All those people said they liked it and were sure their families would watch it," recalls Herbert, "but they were just as sure that 'the masses' wouldn't."
