Struggle (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Struggle A just judge must not be moved by inclinations or prejudices. If he be infinitely just, it would be better for him not to harbour likes or dislikes what soever. For after he has heard the evidence, there can be no doubt as to his judgment. Every human being-has an instinctive sentiment destined to play the role of such a judge. Even children and the intellectually lowest races, although not competent to practise justice recognize it. Justice meted out by the father elevates him in the eyes of his chil dren to a king whom they love and adore. Every unjust action by him produces fear in them and lowers their respect.

The Secret of Progress (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

A Life-Struggle, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from A Life-Struggle, Vol. 1 of 2 On a bright May morning, and at an hour unusually early for persons of their appearance and deportment, two individuals were seated beneath one of the stately trees in Kensington Gardens.
