Book excerpt: Sweden's history from a poor rural country in the periphery of Europe to a modern welfare state is told in this book along with an analysis of contemporary extremes in culture, morals and government. The Swedish Story is written for non-Swedish readers to explain how the inner workings of welfare state and post-modern values pan out in everyday lives of Swedish citizens. The aim of the book is to start a discussion about how Sweden may become more mainstrean, more European and less extreme.
