Definition: Fixation on or obsession with a single object or idea.
[@more@]Usage: People with a single-minded obsession are monomaniacs and they behave monomaniacally.
Suggested Usage: Here is a variant of "obsessive" that can be applied to any kind of single-minded obsession. "He is a football monomaniac and never watches anything else on TV" or "The media's monomaniacal focus on the election results is driving ME crazy."
Etymology: Greek mono-s "alone, only, solitary" + mania "passion, enthusiasm, madness." Monos also underlies most English words beginning with "mono-" such as "monotheism, monopoly, monotony" but also "monk" and "monastery," a place of solitude. "Mania" is related to English "mad," and via Latin to "mental, mention, money, memory."
