Lektor Jensens optegnelser henvender sig til læsevante voksne. Bogens længste afsnit med titlen "Upædagogiske betragtninger" er en nøgtern beretning fra det danske uddannelsessystem. Som kønsmoden person i tiden før og efter 1968 har forfatteren også noget at fortælle om kærlighedsforhold. I afsnittet "Folkeoplysning og propaganda" opregnes mange af velfærdsstatens problemer. De følges op af løsningsforslag, som dog må antages at være for logisk indlysende til at kunne realiseres. Desuden har bogen afsnit om psykologi og religiøsitet samt henvisninger til stor litteratur og musik.
