Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Présentation de l'éditeur

UNTO THIS LAST is an essay on economy and social justice by John Ruskin, first published in 1860 in a series of four articles in Cornhill Magazine. Ruskin said himself that these articles were very violently criticized, which forced the publisher to stop the publication after four articles. But Ruskin countered the attack and persevered, publishing and releasing the four articles in book form in 1862. UNTO THIS LAST had a profounding and lasting impact on Gandhi's philosophy and life, with Gandhi deciding immediately to change his own life according to Ruskin's teachings.
